bpcw0001 Posted June 24, 2023 Report Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) Hi, after having done a couple of flights during daytime with this marvellous Challenger 650, I went for some night flying. However, I seem to be getting some issues here. The integ lighting of the flight control panel, of the controls located between the two MFDs (ISI, SGWAIS switches), and of the CAPT and FO side panels (where the radio controls and oxy masks are) are super-bright, and apparently cannot be dimmed by the respective integ light controls located on the center pedestal: This is extremely irritating during night flying, when everything else is dimmed down nicely. On the other hand, the clock digit figures are barely readable. What am I missing? Can this brightness be controlled? Thanks Edited June 24, 2023 by bpcw0001 Quote

RonMont Posted October 1, 2023 Report Posted October 1, 2023 Still can't find how to adjust the Clock/Chronometer brightness. The 3 sets of controls on the rear of the pedestal have no effect on it. Quote
