I was thinking about night flying:
I would like it if 121.5, with the appropriate amount of clicks, would turn on the lights to airports in the area with pilot controlled lighting.
Maybe it does already, I don't think it does.
I am not sure how horribly hard this would be to implement.
Many of our airplanes already have a buttons that will turn our Com 1 to 121.5, then three clicks later the airport you didn't plan on gliding into has it's runways illuminated and no need to dig up CTAF to get the lights on.
What do you think?
Hard to implement?
No point?
