Flare Path

Definition:

A flare path refers to a designated area on the ground, typically at an airfield or helipad, that is marked by illuminated flares to guide aircraft during takeoff and landing.

Senses:

1. Noun: A clearly marked path on the ground, usually at an airfield, which helps guide aircraft during low visibility conditions.
2. Noun: A play by Terence Rattigan, first presented in 1942, that takes place during World War II and follows the intertwined lives of military personnel and their loved ones.

Examples:

1. The pilot easily followed the flare path to make a safe landing in the foggy weather.
2. During the war, the constant illumination of the flare path was crucial for night operations at the air base.
3. I recently read an engaging book called "Flare Path" which beautifully captures the emotions and challenges faced by those involved in wartime.
