I thought I did, didn't I? Aharon

[Darth Mop 6]

nope, can't see them in the last few shots, its switched on in the upper shots though

Darthmop.Maybe it was not blinking on when I took screenshots. It is hard to catch any light blinking on at precise same moment when I take screenshot.Aharon

Hmm, normally the NAV lights won´t blink in any way (unless you have an military plane but the 743 ain´t.) so you will likely have forgotten to switch them on or something else prevented them from showing.
