A '''Landing Zone''', condensed to ''LZ'', is the military term for any area where aircraft such as [[Pelican|dropships]] are able to land. A Landing Zone can have many functions, but normally the term is used to describe a combat area where a dropship must land in order for its passengers to disembark. | A '''Landing Zone''', condensed to ''LZ'', is the military term for any area where aircraft such as [[Pelican|dropships]] are able to land.
