Makes me think of the multiplayer carrier ops sessions after dark when we'd have all our nav lights on. :)
GOONIE:
cool pic. looks like he got a little slow 'In the Wires', must have been trying to grab that three wire....
Those MP sessions were fun! ;D
Orion:
It didn't really occur to me that the center light trail was the AoA indexer until after reading your post. It's been too long. :P
Want to go flying in multiplayer again sometime? Looks like there are a few of us still around.
SpazSinbad:
Different people see different things perhaps? I thought that red trail with the double flashes down the centre was the anti collision light (flashing) but otherwise dimly visible? Is it possible to see the AoA Indexer lights on the nosewheel from that 'goofers/vultures row' position?
Orion:
Oh, perhaps not. I just thought so because Brennan said he got slow in the wires, and made the connection between the AoA indexer colors and the AoA light on the nose gear assembly. With a long exposure, the light would streak as such, and it is amber all the way down to the wires, where it turns green.
