787 APU Lights

Features
#1

Since the 787 is in development I thought it would be a good idea to recommend the APU lights found on the back of the 787. On the current version there is just a single light in the middle, not the 2 side by side.

I find that they would look really neat in IF and distinguish the aircraft very nicely. I read a topic on the lighting for the wing, but I couldn’t find anything about APU lights specifically.

Forgive me if my term “APU light” is incorrect, all I know is that they’re located near the APU.

The real one Looks stunning indeed. Would Love to see this feature on the “Revamped” B787 Update :D (It would make the Night Skyline Brighter :D)

(Where did you get that top picture?)

I fully support this! It would realism and just like the Dash, the lights are located in the right place. :)

But the lights aren’t very bright (I guess that comes with a lighting update). And they aren’t blue, is that how it is sometimes in real life?

I don’t know if you guys noticed this in real 787s, but the rear lights (in the APU), remains on even when it doesn’t flash with the strobe lights, so far I don’t see this in IF.

The global flight will be in another update. The upcoming update will be for the revamped 777 and 787 and the other new liveries. What are you trying to say?
