A signal transmitting device 100 is provided for communicating with an aircraft in the vicinity of a landing area. The device is configured to receive a signal from the aircraft and is further configured to transmit a return signal to the aircraft automatically upon receipt of the signal. The return signal comprises information regarding the landing area and the signal transmitting device includes a location device to determine the location of the signal transmitting device. The transmitted information includes the location of the signal transmitting device. The location device may comprise a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver and the signal transmitting device may include a transponder or transceiver. In an alternative implementation, the signal transmitting device comprises a symbol painted with paint, the paint being configured to reflect the signal, and the information regarding the landing area is encoded in the symbol.
