OK, simmers... It's quiz time.
See if you can identify these on the CS 727-100...



JP & Dog should know, so no credit for them!  Grin

The more I fly the CS 727, the more fun I have!

That's easy! The one on the left is the signal for the FA to bring coffee, and the on on the right is for the FA to come get the empty cups!  Wink

I haven't flown the 727-100 for about 10 years. I am going to say they are the hydraulic A/B overheat warning lights?

HAHAHAHAHA Well thought out Bruce!

@ Lou. I have no idea as there is nothing in the manuals to say what they are. Sad

Hint...

What is the set of lights just to the right of the mystery things???

That's a hint and a half for you guys!  Wink

Those lights can be amber or green!  Shocked

I'll guess that the annunciator lights to the right are the *Approach Progress* display on the FO panel and the two items in question are *Marker Beacon* test lights.?

Bruce,

You are getting warm.

The two round items are photo cells that control the brightness of the approach progress display brightness.
The left one is for the captain's side and the right one the F/O's side.

If you look close to the approach progress display unit, you will see a small tab on each side at the middle.
Push one side you test amber, the other tests green.

Lou - Just a WAG on my part. I saw this image and couldn't think of anything else.

 C01. LIGHTS TEST/MARKER (picture wouldn't copy)

1. Marker Beacon Sensitivity Switch
2. Master Test and Dimming Switch
