According the info we have (flight manuals), the B-52G/H do not have upper beacon lights.

I noticed this from the very first release of the buff and was surprised it didn't have them.   So,  I added them myself.   I kept the wintip lights and the white lights on the stabs because I like how they are done,  but the rest I used shockwave lights.

this is my lights config in the aircraft.cfg file:

[LIGHTS]
light.1 = 3, -81.00, -26.00, -4.50, fx_navwhi   ;LS
light.2 = 3, -81.00,  26.00, -4.50, fx_navwhi   ;RS
light.3 = 3,  -9.90,  -3.90,-12.55, fx_navwhi   ;LB
light.4 = 3,  -9.90,   3.90,-12.55, fx_navwhi   ;RB
light.5 = 1, -44.5, 1.4, 0.06, fx_shockwave_beacon_rotating_red ,
light.6 = 1, -44.5, -1.4, 0.06, fx_shockwave_beacon_rotating_red ,
light.7 = 1, -31.6, 0, -13.1, fx_shockwave_beacon_rotating_red ,
//light.8 = 1, -32.00,   0.00,-13.30, fx_beaconh  ;A
//light.9 = 7, -27.00, -31.00,-11.00,  cs52_sf      ;f
//light.10 = 7, -27.00,  31.00,-11.00,  cs52_sf      ;f
light.8 = 4,  66,   0, 11.19, fx_vclighth
light.9 = 5, 27.0, 7.4, -12, fx_Shockwave_landing_light
light.10 = 5, 36, -6.1, -12, fx_Shockwave_landing_light
light.11 = 5, 27.2, 5.0, -15, Fx_Shockwave_landing_light_double//b52landinglight

don't forget to add this line to the panel.cfg under [vcockpit01]

gauge14=shockwave_lights!SW Lights_gear,1,1,1,1//shockwave light

That first video was awesome. It really showed the weapons capability of the good ol' BUFF.

Thanks for pointing it out.
