Landing Lights?
« on: October 12, 2010, 10:17:22 pm »
I had a penality with FL during my last flight. I switched off my landing lights too early.

What is the altitude to switch on/off the landing lights?

Thks and good flights!

Hi There,

You need to keep you landing lights on under 10,000ft.  The penalty applies whilst ascending and descending, just make sure they are on when passing through the flight level.

Hi Frederic,

In the ProPilot section of the website in the "Pilot's Lounge", you can find all PPP's (Pro Pilot Penalties) by clicking on he word "here" in "Click here to view all penalties!" - even though it may not strike you as a link at first glance ;). It sits right below the crashed airplanes table on the right, and takes you here:

For Landing lights the required height is FL100 (always have you LL on below FL100).


EDIT: Jonathan beat me to it.
That's what you get when you type in your entire life story, eh? :)

Cheers both,
