Not a biggie, but I cannot locate a switch for the Internal Night Lighting on the Carenado Seminole. I am using the  keyboard "L" key to illuminate the Panel lights. I also notices the "NIGHT Dim / DAY switch next to the Radio master switch is "INOP" (I thought that was the Internal Light switch.

Look on the ceiling in the middle , there is a light and rotary knob to adjust the brightness. 

Thanks Bob. I thought that was the O\H Light switch\knob only. So, now I know that controls the Panel lighting as well. BTW, my first full flight in the Seminole, a night landing into Naples (LIRN). What a joy to fly, I am officially a converted MSFS simmer as of now!

Regards,

Tom

I love the way the Seminole flies, to me it feels like a real aircraft. There are also two knobs on the panel that control lighting under the pilots yoke. 

Good to know, thanks for the tips!

Bob stop it, you will tempt me to get the Seminole.

You say it feels like a real airplane, well, does it move and jostle you around in the right conditions?

I can see myself in the Seminole, but I do not want an inertia-less, fly-on-rails plane.  I suppose what I really want is A2A, but I can't have that right now.

I have flown 5 or 6 aircraft in MSFS 2020, the Mooney, JF Arrow 3, PMDG DC6, Seminole, C 172 Steam Gauge,  I haven't experienced any of them that fly like they are on rails. I have about 600 hours in RL flying GA aircraft, and I think the aircraft in MSFS that I have flown, act pretty close to real life, especially in Mountainous areas with turbulence. Never experienced that in any other sim, and I have been simming  for well over 3 decades, including the 5 A2A aircraft I flew in P3D.

Just discovered something on the Seminole, there is a switch on the lighting panel that says "Recog Light".. Couldn't figure out what it turned on, I finally saw that it is two white light on the wingtips facing forward about a foot inboard of the end of each  wing. BTW, the lighting on the Seminole is the best of any aircraft lighting I have seen so far in MSFS. The landing lights are bright, and  light up the approach area, and the panel lights are totally adjustable and look fantastic. This will be my favorite aircraft to fly at night, by far.
