Beacon switch!

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello folks! Thought I would pop this question here to see what response I get. 

For the life of me I cannot find the beacon light switch anywhere. I actually fly a C-47 for the Civilian Air Force in the U.S. Ive use my checklist for the actual aircraft for fun and for demo purposes when the aircraft is on tour (big help now that I have this add-on!) but for VC flight reference, I cant seem to find any active "switch" (ours is located on a center console above our more "modern" radio stack).

Am I wrong and ...well...blind? Granted I know you can just hit a key and blamo! Beacon light! BUT... does not help in a teaching and demo situation. 

Any thoughts?

	There is a beacon switch on the 2D Electrical Panel.

	2d kind of blows the experience and the C-47 simulator we are building.
