Abstract
A directional flare system is disclosed. A flare is used which emits light generally isotropically when actuated. An opaque shield is located to one side of the flare to prevent the transmission of light from the flare throughout a preselected sector about a vertical axis passing through the flare. Means are provided for maintaining the opaque shield in a preferred angular orientation about the vertical axis.
