Regarding airfield approach lights

Recommended Posts

Dear friends!

 

I would like to ask you about the airfield approach lightsin SF1 (and SF2) series. They are switched on at 7.00 or 8.00 PM as far as I remember. But they are not visible in inclement weather during the daytime. Is it possible to have them lighting during the daytime in inclement weather only and if yes, please tell how to make this, otherwise the runways are not visible. It would be fantastic! 

 

Many thanks and kindest regards!

Marat,

 

As best I can remember the airfield lights can be adjusted to be on for a specific continuous period of time.

However I am not aware of any way to make the lights visible during inclement weather during day time hours.

It's a part of the flight and, as you don't risk your life, I would say it's fun.

So no cheating but searching the runway xD

 

Do a 360° turn, and when spotted make a low altitude landing pattern, watching for speed / altitude / variometer / the damn runway...
