[NO BUG] ENG INSTR knob control flood light

[Northwind]

Before generator provide the power,ENG INSTR knob control flood light,FLOOD knob does nothing.

After generator provide the power,ENG INSTR knob doesn't control flood light but control engine instrument light,FLOOD knob control flood light.

 

Looks like a bug.

Per page 1-118 of TO 1F-5E-1, the floodlights are normally powered by the left AC bus, which requires the left generator to be operating (or GPU I suppose). When AC power is not available, the floodlights are powered by the DC bus (battery) through the ENG INSTR rheostat, bypassing the FLOOD knob.

 

I am not by my machine to test, but by the description you provided it sounds like the aircraft is performing just like it should.

You're right.

Thanks.
