The first extensive spectra of NCN in atmospheric pressure flames are reported, as well as qualitative planar LIF images of its spatial distribution. The spectra have been recorded by LIF in lifted, fuel-rich CH4/N2O/N2 and CH4/air flames, and are compared to simulations. In the CH4/air flames, the NCN LIF signal peaks around {phi} = 1.2. Planar LIF imaging illustrates the very confined NCN distribution in the CH4/N2O/N2 flame.
