Hangar 7 / Re: All Light Switches Question For Aerowinx - Labeling OFF/ON

By the way, the option doesn't only affect the lighting switches but also anti-ice, emergency exit, oxygen, wipers ...

The Lufthansa sims also have ON=up; other airline crews that use the LH sims know that.

Thai International

You can see most of the light switches in the down position at the gate here:

Hangar 7 / All Light Switches Question For Aerowinx - Labeling OFF/ON

« Last post by Captain_al on Tue, 28 Sep 2021 06:57 »

Hi Hardy:

I can't believe I never noticed this before on Aerowinx 747.

If this is an option, I have never seen it before and I am not aware of anyone who would have this configuration. But I could be wrong.

It would be awkward as hell to take the runway and have to pull up on the Landing Light switch to turn them on for takeoff. Any jet or simulator I have ever been in, you always turn on the lights with an up to down motion, not down to up motion. All the lights are configured that way, so is this really an option or are the labels backwards?

If it is, I have never seen it in over 30 years, in any FCOM, and never in any Boeing customer I have ever trained and any airline I have ever flown with??? Please tell me it ain't so...

So was the picture, since we cannot see it, from the 747 or 787? It should not be any different in the 787.

They are too big, so I could not upload.

But I confirm, they’re from the 787
