Simply fantastic!

From Mel:
=====================================
I have added a couple of more monitors to my cockpit....14 now...the one that you can't see is to the right....but it is there. Grin.

However, the BIG improvement was using the GoFlight T-8 module to replicate the LandingLIght switches on all Boeing airplanes that are located on the overhead panel.

I simply wrapped the circuit board of the T8 with foam and attached it to my ceiling support beam and ran the USB cable to a hub....lit right up and I can now cycle the Landing lights, Beacon, Wing Lights, Panel lights....etc with my right hand that still remembers how to go up and find the proper switch in the dark. Grin.

Regards,

Mel

Ben,

Thanks for the upload of the graphic!

I must admit that it is a bit of a stretch for anyone to get too excited about landing light activation with all of the other goodies in FS2002.......but it IS a kick to turn on the landing lights in the FS2002 server computer.....and then to watch the lights come on ALSO in the client computers running the other outside views.

WideView from Luciano Napolitano and FSUIPC from Peter Dowson allow that enhancement to happen and the realism afforded from that simple little thing.......really overlooks the tremendous work they both have done to make FS2002 so enjoyable.

The view in the picture was taken right at the point of sunrise, in Miami, while sitting on runway 9R.

Regards,

Mel
