That is another problem, check shadow of for example lightning in plib.
The shadow is quite bad, like half of the aircraft didn't exist. The lightning
is the worst example but many other exists.

Best way to see lightning problems is to fly on the side and look out through
side cockpit window at ground with sun almost right over head. I can make a
screenshot if you want later.
