Good afternoon all...

Having spent many hours, using different times, locations and seasons I have been unable to get the Northern Lights to show up in FSX.

http://www.northernlightscentre.ca/northernlights.html

Some say they were in FS2004 but Microsoft left them out of FSX.

I am not sure about that.

But, having seen the Northern Lights many many times in real life in many parts of Canada I would like to see if they could be replicated in this new program.

They would make for a very beautiful interesting flight and it does not have to be pitch black out to see them either.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

I've seen them by pure chance in fs2004. They are not all that dramatic. But they are there. Apparently VERY rare.

best,

I caught them once in FS02, not sure about FS04, don't have FSX. Seem to recall they were kinda greenish, nothing spectacular. Wonder if someone has an add-on for this?
