Holy smokes......very cool Cool
 

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Thanks so much for the compliment. That means a bundle to me coming from a man who's been there. Unfortunaltely when I shut the landing lights off there is still one lamp lit, so I'll have to go into cfg to figure things out  Huh Sorry Doug  Embarrassed

Are you making the same mistake I did Greg, turning the landing lights off with the keyboard? Click on the the yoke where it goes into the dash to make it go away. Below it, there are two switches, one for landing lights and one for taxi lights. Also, the switch for the reddish tint dome light is on the ceiling. Now you can click on the dash to return the yoke.
