August 12, 200322 yr Hi guys...I'm a brand new happy customer of your 737-700.Nicely done,and is also appreciated your care for customers.Altough I have a question..regarding the airplane,I cannot sayit's a problem because I don't know how is suppose to work yet.The landing lights are suppose to retract when you turn them offfrom the overhead panel ?Because if they're suppose to retract,then I have a problem to report...If they are not retractable then is OK.Can someone help me with this ?Thank you in advance for your consideration in this matter,Horatiu
August 12, 200322 yr Yes the real 737 (NG only) has Retractable landing light, Not sure if it's an airline option or standard equipment on the NG. Fixed landing lights are in the wing...[h5]Best Wishes,Randy J.

August 13, 200322 yr "Yes the real 737 (NG only) has Retractable landing light,..."Only the NG, Randy? :-) I assume you mean the ones under the fuselage? The older generation 737's have retractable ones under the wing in the sailboat fairings (I relamped one the other day).PMDG's 737 only appears to model a two-position landing light switch however. On the real 737, two of the switches have an intermediate position to allow you to extend the light, but not switch it on (easier to relamp the light that way without burning your hands or electrocuting yourself*) :(Cheers.Ian.*The Boeing Maintenance Manual recommends pulling the circuit breakers also... for the above reasons... and to stop your hands getting trapped if the lamps retract accidentally ;-)
