I must be getting senile or something...

Does anyone know where the switch for the rotating beacon / anti collision lights is located in the cockpit. I can't find it in the manual nor in the cockpit.

Hi Tobus, look down to the pilots left hand side and to the right of the avionics switch. Lamp I love the Connie!

hmm...

From left to right Ive got:
2 flare releases
avionics main
Leading edge (tooltip says pitot heat)
nav lights
ground crew
taxi lights (off, will not stay on when flipped)
chart light
non functioning switch.

Switching any of those does not toggle my beacon as seen on outside view.

There's a glitch in the numbering system in the aircraft.cfg I changed the numbering to the following, for instance on my 1049, so that the one switch turns them all on.
