Hi There, it was the scaling RUNWY lights, I had it =0.3 and it was too small. so I changed it to 0.6 and bingo all the lights are seen from any where at the airports and Taxiway.I have 4 lines in my FS9.cfg, but I don't remember all as I am not at home know. But 1 is for the Vasi, 1 for the rail and 1 for the center and middle lights of the runway.Now you can try 0.5 or 0.6 or 0.7 depending on your taste.Hope this helpRegards
