I do not live in Europe but while flying from London to Amsterdam at night I see a few sets of red lights in the channel. Could some one explain what these are? they show up in rows/cols of maybe 8x8
Note: you have to fly at night to see them 
I was thinking they were a marker of sorts
Screenshot? Coordinates?
At least IRL these are wind turbine beacons.
I will get a SS next time I fly in that area
so the lights I am seeing are Wind turbines on the water? IRL ofcourse
They are actually all over the world. There are some near LAX as well just to the West of it coming in from KDEN
that makes sense I have not seen them near LAX but I’ll look my next flight
Lots of them flying west out of KPHX…
Yes. Should be the same in MSFS.
Based on my experience with Sailaway, I’d say they’re wind turbines. My goodness, sailing between all those in a storm sucks.
Yes Wind Turbines off the Sussex coast.
There are several big wind farms off the English and Dutch/Belgian coasts in the North Sea/Channel IRL and the sim.
Spent a little while playing around in them in the Icon A5 a week or so ago 
the landing lights ?? 4 left and 4 right ??
This marks just your deviation from glidepath..
Simple Memorandum:
White: Out of sight / Red: you are dead
Meaning:
You have to stay in area of two red and two white lights. If you are to high you see more white lights, if you are to low, you see more red lights.
The turbines are flying? This I have to see. 
Probably just a misidentified V-22 Osprey.
Yes wind turbines - I’ve seen them several
times during a “real” flight… even though my definition of real vs game is getting a bit confusing these days!
LOL.. he meant realy the lights of “wind turbines” 
(?)..
Little Rubber Boats dodging the Shipping Traffic !
The English Channel as are many areas around the world are navigable waterways. The international body responsible for safe ship handling (US Coast Guard in the United States-similar origination in the UK) and in agreements have determined this rule of thumb. Red Lights on right side on Returning from Sea going upriver/channel toward harbor. Green Lights on the down stream or out to sea channel side. Yes, Windmills will have red warning (should be strobe possibly-but red) light as well so planes can see them. Red is used as it does not disrupt night vision as bad, and our eyes pick up red quicker than any other color. At water level, again as rule above, their will be markers to show the hazard and direction. Believe, all local harbors around the world have a system, where ship is coming in, a local pilot (read qualified ship captain well versed in local navigation of waters) is placed aboard to mitigate collisions at sea close to land. Additionally, in the English channel, during the war, they built many gun emplacements and those structures are still in place, rusting away. Those have navigation beacons on them as well. The English channel, the straight of Gibraltar, Suez Canal, Panama Canal, and many other body’s of water which are navigable have large arrays of navigation beacons or buoys directing ships at sea on which way to travel. Plus very, very busy waterways for ship traffic. That is what you are seeing when flying at night.
I believe it’s called “offshore wind power” and it’s a huge thing.
Not the papa lights; the red lights that appear in the middle of the english channel and some other places around the world, which have been solved as being wind generators.
Maybe one day I will fly close by and take a more detailed look. but for now its not on top of my priority list.
