Spoiler armed light

Featured Replies

The spoiler armed light is on when the spoiler lever is in the spoiler down position and in the detent. If I raise the spoiler it goes out but comes on again as soon as set it back in the down detent. I am not sure if this is something I am doing wrong or not. I don't recall this happening before. I just installed Hotfix 3 so don't know if that is the cause. Everything else is running okay as far as I can tell. FSX 64 Ultimate, i7 980x, 6G ram, ATI HD5850 Tom Hibben

I believe the light is always on when you either arm or detent the spoilers. I could be wrong, but I recall always seeing it when using the spoilers in flight.

That's the way it's working on my system.

That's normal Tom, just how it should be! Regards

The light is there to let you know your Armed, or the Speed Brakes are on. Just like you have 3 Green Landing lights that light up to let you know the gear is down, and also the green light to let you know flaps are extended.
