We are proud to be a U.S. company based in Minnesota, dedicated to providing high-quality red lighting solutions for pilots across the nation. At Spinning Propeller, we specialize in designing lights that help pilots preserve night vision while clearly illuminating their tools and instruments, enhancing safety and comfort during night flights.

Our products are meticulously crafted and tested to meet the unique needs of pilots navigating in low-light conditions. With Spinning Propeller's straightforward yet effective solutions, pilots can safely maintain visibility inside the cockpit without risking night blindness. We’re here to support pilots in their night flying endeavors, keeping them equipped and confident in the skies.

How It Works

  • Clip It Securely

    Attach the light where you need it most! Clip our compact seat belt light directly onto your seat belt, or attach our yoke-mounted light for hands-free illumination of your instrument panel.

  • Direct Light Toward Your Instruments

    Point the red light toward your instruments or charts. The gentle red glow provides just enough visibility to read clearly without flooding your cockpit with brightness that disrupts your night vision.

  • Avoid Night Blindness

    Unlike other bright lights, our red lights protect your eyes’ natural adjustment to darkness. Enjoy clear, safe visibility inside the cockpit without impairing your view outside.
