How to Make Strobe Lights Flash in Flight Simulator X

Microsoft's "Flight Simulator X" flight sim features flashing strobe lights on your plane and on aircraft controlled by the computer. The lights are located on the leading edge of each wing and on the tail fin. On a real aircraft, the strobe lights help prevent collisions. In "Flight Simulator X," they are just for show, but add an extra touch of realism to the aircraft. You can toggle them on and off separately or with the other lights using the keyboard.
