Landing lights

Featured Replies

Hi, Why are the landing lights switched off after take off rather than above 10,000 ft? This causes problems with FSCaptain, and FSPassengers. Thanks

Immediately after take off as part of the "after take off" function. Thanks

Hi, I just refreshed my memory by looking at my manuals. FO’S AFTER TAKEOFF FLOW- APR SWITCH OFF- LANDING, TAXI & ICE OBSERVATION LIGHTS OFF- CONDITION LEVERS 96 TO 100 PERCENT FO’S ACTIONS PASSING 10,000- CONSPIC LIGHTS OFF- TAIL FLOOD LIGHT TO NAV- CYCLE SEATBELT SWITCH OFF THEN ON TO NOTIFY FA STERILE COCKPIT OVER- PROP SYNC ON So the behavior is correct: it's not a bug what you described. You'll just need to see if you can stop FSPassengers from penalizing you for having the lights off below 10,000 feet (not all airlines leave the landing lights on till 10,000... the MD-11 also turns the landing lights off early after wheels up).

Thanks Bryan, i didn't say it was a bug. Just FSP and FSCaptain both want the lights on below 10,000. I have disabled it, it just is a little irksome.
