Oooh, thank you.

The light s need to be turned on at a greater distance and turned off when required.

To put us all out of our confusion? What map in IL-2 is showing the airfield 'Wards'?

It's the B25 blind landing single player mission installed along with 4.10

There's one for the Me110 too.

Ok now I know where we are. This mission has been designed to practice blind landings, using an NDB (Non Directional Beacon) to home in on and then the ILS beacons to bring you over the runway threshold at the correct height and direction using your instruments.

Red light Type 2's have been used at the runway threshold, which are a bit dim to see properly from a distance at 0100 in the morning (Pitch black). You can go into the FMB and modify this single mission to change the runway light to white Type 1, which might make it a bit easier to to see where you are on approach. The light Type 2's are showing up in the FMB when you open up the map.

Hope this helps you Tempest123

Yep, thanks, sorry for the confusion. I placed runway lights there, but they still illuminate a little late, it seems the range to turn them on is quite short, but maybe its just the hazy weather, I'll try again when i have more time.
