September 7, 20205 yr Am I alone with opinion, that runway PAPI light has an insufficient level of intensity? Maybe it's problem only with non-HDR monitor, but I think, that PAPI should be recognized correctly from more far distance in the good visibility day conditions, than we can see in MSFS. And I think, that aircraft landing lights should be a little more powerfull too. Ok, landing lights are only a cosmetics problem, but if I'm in a visual approach, I would greatly appreciate a little more PAPI usable distance.
September 7, 20205 yr I have that too, and I agree with you.

Game Mode on, GPU scheduling enabled (Win11). MSFS settings: High-End for airlines, Ultra for GA.
September 7, 20205 yr Can't say I have noticed this, PAPI vis for me is great up to 10 miles out.

September 7, 20205 yr This, and the lack of aircraft awareness flashing lights on high rises is some of the small, imperfect things I’ve noticed.

September 7, 20205 yr I think it's opposite you can see PAPI VASI, ALS, REIL all kind of light from a far distance. However what you can see furthest is a rotating beacon! I made this video long time ago from w wing mounted camera but it's a good display. The video start around 10 miles out at around ESCON https://aeronav.faa.gov/d-tpp/2009/05310IL24.PDF Life time flight sim enthusiast, current airplane owner 172P (past C182F).

September 7, 20205 yr The weird thing is that i had been to other people’s house and see their lights we all seemed to have different levels of intensity. In my case I think sometimes you can see the lights too far out compared to real life. But than again is different in other airports Image removed as image is no longer available.

Maybe its because of that HDR thing. I dont have a hdr monitor.
