In P3DV5 and V4, I notice that I can slew an aircraft in a circular motion and as it rotates, the sides of the air craft will go from bright to dark.
Some aircraft like the C-130, will be so dark on the bottoms sides of the fuselage, you can't see much detail and the top of the wing will be
light enough. I've tried to play with the graphics setting in P3D with lighting, and shadow effects but for some aircraft they remain dark on the lower
sides of the fuselage.

Same aircraft but used the slew key so as it rotates....the sides go from dark to light. Why does it do that is what I'd like to know.
