Airport taxi night lighting

Featured Replies

This airport taxi's night lighting could use improvement. This picture was taken at JFK 31R; my iPhone is quite old, but it is clear that they are still far from what we should see. This was right at 1,000 FT RA.

Does look a bit bright to say the least, but hard to tell how much of it is down to the sim or your monitor settings.  Also taking a shot of a screen with a phone always seems to look brighter than it actually is.

That was from the real cockpit inbound JFK 13L on the 748. Yes, my phone is old, but you can clearly notice that no taxiway edge lights are seen as is shown on the MSFS2024.
