An emergency landing pad is used to capture a vertical landing capable aircraft that has a hung gear. The device is trailer based with the trailer having a series of wheels. At least one capture pad sits atop the trailer so that a portion of the aircraft lands atop the capture pad which cushions the fuselage of the aircraft. The capture pad is made from a resilient material, such as high-density foam, a rubber or similar materials. A cover is placed over the capture pad and one or more straps cinches the capture pad and the cover to the trailer. The cover may have markings on an outer surface thereof, which markings may be light reflective. The trailer is towed to the landing site via an ordinary tug and several trailers can be chained together in series in case more than one trailer is needed for aircraft capture.
