Cockpit Entry at Night, cold and dark.

Featured Replies

There's a tiny push switch on the overhead on the left side as you enter the cockpit. You can't see it, I guess as in real life, but you can mouse over in the general area till you see the pointer change. Same as fumbling for it if you K ow it's there. It says it's a light to get you going. For me, pushing doesn't do anything. Can someone help me please? Thanks.

You must at least have External Power AVAIL.

See

etc...

Unfortunately, the battery and standby power switches are probably easier to find than the flight deck lights switch, so it's all rather pointless. In the real world, you'd probably have the engineers supply External Power and they'd then turn on the Ground Service system (illuminating the cabin/cockpit).
