in here, in the Shaders section, have you tried increasing the Performance slider to increase the quality of the rendering??

I'd also try to switch off "Use triangles for directional lights", as this option was added for graphics drivers that are capable of using them (see FG 2020.3 changelog) and maybe your graphics driver doesn't support triangles.

Hallo at all. The problem solved.
I go up with the shaders settings to two or higher and the landing lights was vissible again.
But I don't remember changing this value with the shader to 1 or below. Strange but now it´s working again.
Thanks at all for your great suppert and help.
