In one aspect a pilot assembly is disclosed for use with a flare having a first flare stack and a second flare stack, each having discharge ends. The pilot assembly comprises a pilot nozzle assembly, a pilot inlet pipe having a pilot fuel inlet, and a pilot ignition system. The pilot nozzle assembly comprises a connecting member, a pilot nozzle inlet, a first pilot nozzle and a second pilot nozzle. The pilot nozzle assembly can direct a quantity of pilot gas received via the pilot inlet pipe out through the first and second pilot nozzles. The first and second pilot nozzles may both be positioned adjacent the discharge end of either one of the first or second flare stacks. Alternatively, the first pilot nozzle may be positioned adjacent the first flare stack's discharge, and the second pilot nozzle may be positioned adjacent the second flare stack's discharge end.
