Curved Taxiway Centerline Light Colors and Runway Edge Light Fixtures

Post by Torbin » Mon Aug 03, 2020 3:32 pm

Hi guys,

In case in an update you plan to increase airport lighting accuracy, then please consider making the taxiway leadoff lighting an alternating green and yellow. Currently they are green only (v1.1). I have linked a YouTube video if an actual landing at LAS that shows this: https://youtu.be/ITJqLhm_XTY?t=75

Also, it looks as though the FlyTampa runway edge lights are set flush to the pavement surface. While this is true when a fixture is needed on an intersecting runway/taxiway or runway/runway, the rest are often post mounted. This video of an aircraft taxiing onto LAS runway 26 shows the post mounted edge lights:

True, our P3D version in fact is correct in this details. A bit tougher to replicate in XPlane, especially the post mounted taxi lights. Cannot promise a timeline but it is likely to be updated, at least for the leadoff lighting
