Does the new 777-200ER have visible strobe lights? What about beacon lights?
The reason I ask is that even while I’m typing this comment, I cannot detect either beacon or strobe lights on the 777. Is anyone else experiencing this? FYI – I do have the latest update for IF. The only lights I can see when it’s dark are the Nav and landing lights.
Yes, all aircraft have visible exterior lights. The beacon is located on the top/bottom of the aircraft and flashes red, and the strobes are located on the wingtips and flash white.
Yes, I understand this. But what I’m referring to is the new 772ER and not being able to see it’s lights, specifically.
All other aircraft I have seen working lights – not the reworked 777.
Do you mean they seem faint? Not much colour to them?
the lights will only work if your APU/Engines are on.
Yes, even with the APU and engines running, on my device the strobe lights and the beacon lights do not work. I have even checked when it’s pitch-black – nothing…
It must be just my device, because I have double and triple checked and they don’t show at all. It’s very bizarre.
Maybe close the session, and come back in. That may help…
What camera view are you in?
Are you in a live session or replay
Yeah, I’ll try that and see what happens. It’s no big deal to me personally, but if others can’t see me taxiing at night at a controlled airport, I don’t want any violations! I’ll see…
I was in drone camera, and I was doing an online flight (live). I have noticed it both on the TS and ES respectively. I also noticed the same thing when I watched the replay.
Could you possible share the replay with us?
After I try restarting my tablet, if it still does not work I’ll try to share my replay. Give me 5 or so minutes…
You can share your replay granted we cant see what is turned on or not.
What if I show the touches, like in a tutorial?
I dont think we can see the menu.
You can share a video or screen shot.
If you’re interested, I just spawned in at LAX on the Expert Server…just spit-balling an idea to maybe see if you can see the strobes on if you’re close to me?
Yeah, no dice! I restarted my tablet and Infinite Flight a couple times and it’s the same. Can’t figure this one out. Thanks for all your help, everyone!
