When learning instrument flying and the first few night flights you learn to
always have at least two (I like three) flashlights handy. There's a company
in California that makes cockpit lights for some situations before you have
to resort to the flight kit for a flashlight. The version I've modelled here
allows the pilot to save his night vision by using variable voltage and a
red filter, as well as adjusting for a flood or spot light effect.

I just think they're cool just like everything else about airplanes!
