    3.0 AV-OL-MI Model The AV-OL-MI is a red, medium intensity LED obstruction beacon designed to comply with either ICAO MIOL Type B or Type C, or FAA L-864 requirements. The model is illuminated for night operation as either a steady burning (ICAO Type C only) or flashing (ICAO Type B or FAA L-864) beacon that can be used for marking obstacles from 45 metres above ground, such as telecommunication towers, wind turbines, buildings and other tall structures.
