Some comments for you.

 

Not all lights are "White", there is a FAA standard that is also a USAF,USMC standard for light colors.

 

If I remember right, all taxiways are blue as an example. If all lights were the same color, it would be very confusing from the air.

 

In this case it's a clear night so it is easier to see, but with less than perfect visibility, it would be harder to distinguish between a runway and a taxiway, specially with multiple parallel runways

 

Just some comments

I think his lights aren't all white , I think he modified the pic to view it better.

The second one is a rough draft i sent him.

Its just my first generation photoshop, auto levels to clear it up for your scrutiny. The lights are correct colors. REALLY :) And that nasty looking amber pad in front of the hangers is now gone.

I'm thinking of making the windsock lights smaller to fit inside better...

No I like color (i got hammered for using to much on my approach lights, not realistic ), just for those I think white would work best....

 

 

Thanks dude , your doinfg some very cool work here...

 

I'll be off the net starting saturday, so I'm trying to finish what i got cooking now and pick it back up after the move.

Yep Air 4, for everything I'm doing. I'm using the stock runways, Dueces terrain, and Polaks sea mod.

Sorry bout that. Good luck on the move. Watch out for Hurricanes. I'll have stuff waiting for ya.
