The aircraft landing clearance indication system is constructed of a faceplate that is adapted to be secured against a surface in a cockpit. The faceplate includes a front surface that includes instructions as to operation of the system. A push button is mounted on the front surface of the faceplate. Depression of the push button illuminates the push button providing an instantaneous feedback as to the authorization of the respective airplane to land on a runway. Once the airplane has landed, the push button is depressed a second time in order to reset itself for future use. The aircraft landing clearance indication system is used during the landing checklist.
