April 5, 201016 yr Ok, I've been on a 4 leg trip onboard a MD11F last week, 3 of these flight were at night and I noticed that when the landing lights were switched on the light cones panned from the left/right to the center. Looks really great. Back home I tested that on the PMDG MD11, but when switching on the landing light they are immediately in the center position, so no panning at all. I first thought it is just not possible due to FS9s limitations, but then I tested the IFDG MD11 1.5 and this model is able to do that. Since the landing lights are not added to the lights section of the aircraft.cfg I assume it is part of the model.Is there a chance you could add that in a future update for the MD11?BTW: Please have a look at this video and start it at 2:38 , so you can see what I mean:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9Mv9f8fFD0Thanks!

April 7, 201016 yr What a great tv-documentary! I just completed my own RTW trip in fs2004/fsx with about 35 legs. Great fun.Concerning the landing lights in FS: maybe this is of interest to you:http://www.a2asimulations.com/store/shockwavelights/Cheers,Jan Peter van Kempen i9-10900, RTX3080/10GB, FSX/P3Dv4.5
April 7, 201016 yr Author Thanks for the reply. I am aware of that addon, but as far as I know it will only change the look of the lights, but won't add any animation. Nicolas M
April 8, 201016 yr I had another close look at the video. Now I know what you mean. I have never witnessed this before, but then again I have never been in the jumpseat of an airliner during takeoff before either. But now that I have seen this, I want it too!Cheers, Jan Peter i9-10900, RTX3080/10GB, FSX/P3Dv4.5
