While on the ground after landing, taxi, parking, and opening the cargo bays, I noticed that the Main Cargo Bays do not illuminate (in the bay itself). There is door frame lighting for both bays.

 

As a GSX user, this is sort of a bummer as one is not able to see the cargo or cargo vehicles - it's all just black. Other aircrash (lol), the cargo bay lighting illuminates the equipment and you can see what is taking place even on the darkest of nights.  With the 777x, it's just pure black.

 

I'm not sure this is actually a "problem" or by design, and while I don't know how the bays are lighted in real life, but assume there is some lighting for workers to see what they're doing. .

 

 

 

Thanks for your time PMDG.

They are.  I know on the CRJ, the rampie has to toggle it.  I'm not sure about the 777 though.  As it's not a rampie sim, I'm not to worried about it.

Sorry, but you're not implying aircraft like the Maddog and other sim's are "Rampie" sim, or that I'm someone who spends his time at the ramp?  Right?

 

I just don't understand your comment, or the reason for it, at all.
