Brief description of the issue:

There are 3 white lights on the left-hand side of Runway 26 - see screenshots - I’m thinking they might be misplaced roadside lights? I don’t think this airport has any night lighting (but have not checked current airport charts).

Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:


ICAO or coordinates (DevMode > Debug > Display position)

MYE4

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:

Start MSFS. In World Map, Choose the Cessna Caravan, set the weather to clear skies, multiplayer to All Players, time to ~ 30 minutes after sunset (03/17/2024).
Set Departure to a Rwy at New Bight (MYCB), arrival to RWY 26, Hawks Nest (MYE4).
Take off & fly the route. It is a short 10 NM flight across the bay.
On approaching the airport, you should see the lights hovering above the runway. They are very noticeable on final & landing.
You could also probably just spawn an aircraft at the airport after dark to see them - I don’t think the flight details that I provided above are needed, but I’ve included them as MYCB → MYE4 was the last leg of a longer flight where I encountered this bug.

SU15 Beta v1.37.8.0, but I think this bug probably pre-dates this build.

Look like street lights.

These are street lights. Sounds like a World Hub candidate for road exclusion polys.
