I was about to post that I could not get runway lights to turn on at all. What is the procedure? Do you request them then when you get no response just assume that they will switch on just before you touch down? I edited the mission and added the same type of lights along the the runway but with no ownership and they show up fine as long as you are at the right angle but I never saw the threshold lights turn on. If they dont turn on until 200m then they were probably under my nose before they turned on, especially as without threshold lights I was landing long to avoid landing before the invisible runway started!
