They are just lights. They aren't anything physical but just a bitmap in space. What I think we're asking for are actual runway lamps. Like these ones: http://www.airport-data.com/airport/photo/026603L.html

I'm in total support of those being destroyable as they are actually an object. Maybe you want the others destroyable as an option.

As in my earlier post..............

The ones we have at present are indestructible,
it would be a better feature if these were selectable.
Standard / Destroyable in the FMB object panel.

EG:

Buildings hangars, factories chimneys with lights are bombed but lights hang in the air.

Missed that one as I have stationary shipping with smoke as well as lights.

The lights are often used creatively in the FMB for stationary shipping, buildings, vehicles, control towers and other airfield paraphernalia including landing lights.

When objects "dressed" with these lights are destroyed it leaves the lights hanging in mid air, hence the ability for them to be destroyable along with the object would be a great feature.

Search lights are nothing to do with this as they are already destroyable.
