For FS9 users, I've also attached a new Halo bitmap that sharpens up the lights not only on the aircraft but for runways too.  Credit for this goes to Luis ? - surname unknown.

I've found these 'short' lights to be somewhat more realistic (from actual photo's) as they're not so glaringly bright as some that could be used.  Not tested in FSX so could be worth a try.  I am though, still working on the taxi/landing light; doesn't seem to matter how I tweak the required fields the light(s) won't go off when the u/c retracts.  If I do crack it - or anyone else resolves it - I'll update here accordingly.

As always, if you do try this please remember to do a backup of the original

As with the CRJ, I'm becoming a fan of the 'short' light - again, they appear to be far more realistic.  My opinion of course     Cannot say if these'll work in FSX - sorry.

I've again gone for the 'short' light effect for the landing lights as I feel they're more realistic from photo's that I've seen and they don't have that ghastly ripple effect along the nose.  However, if you want to try the more glaringly bright lights, just substitute '....landing_light_short.....'   with  '...landing_light_small_xenon...'


One thing I've noticed too is that even with the suggested way of adding a line in the panel.cfg file, you'll have to turn off the taxi lights manually otherwise the light stays on when the nose wheel retracts - which is a little annoying as there's also a small landing light that sits with the taxi light that I've had to sacrifice too. But there you go....
