A flashing red light
In relation to any other aircraft
A flashing red or flashing white light
(360 degrees)
Displayed day and night when in flight, taxiing or
being towed.

Controllers should take the following into
consideration before authorising the flight:
Normally permission should only be granted if
flight remains in UK class A-D airspace. Flight
outside the UK under these conditions may not
be authorised unless permission to continue has
been obtained from the adjacent controlling
authority;
If the pilot’s intention is to fly outside
controlled airspace or within Class E airspace,
he should be instructed to land at the nearest
suitable aerodrome.
Aerodrome selection is the responsibility of
the pilot although he may request
information to assist him in making his
decision. Under certain circumstances the
pilot may decide that the nearest suitable
aerodrome is his original destination.
What is regulation 6?
Regulation 6 - Conduct of the Authority
(f) personnel licensing; where an application for
the grant, validation or variation of a certificate,
licence, approval, authorisation or rating has
been refused;
the applicant may within 14 days after the date
of service of that notice request that the case
be reviewed by the Authority.
(5) Any person who has failed any test or
examination which he is required to pass before
he is granted or may exercise the privileges of a
personnel licence may within 14 days after
being notified of his failure, request that the
Authority determine whether the test or
examination was properly conducted.
