Features ( in depth ):

A. Advanced lighting system for FS2004.

Created by our member Jakob Klein.
Wingtip lights and strobes is not the MS default lights so won't show up super large at distance.
Also the strobe and beacon light shows on the ground when aircraft is on the ground.

These effects works correct only at FS2004 so when using at FSX , which is not supported.
