ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
At night, using Storm lights or flood lighting in the cockpit causes a beacon like flicker with artificing until the lights are turned off.

Experienced first whilst using the FBW A380 so put it down to that, however having the same issue in the Fenix which is leading to believe this is a Sim issue rather than a Aircraft specific one.

Issue isn’t restricted to the cockpit, when in the cabin like the Fenix with Cabin lighting to 100 at night the issue is the same.
