I've noticed, at least on the 787 and some of the newer 737s that the strobes blink with a longer duration of staying lighted. Meaning that on old aircraft, it's a quick flicker and its done followed by the next quick flicker and so on.
On the 787, the lights come on and stay lighted for much longer (at least half a second if not more). Even on the newer 737s being delivered, the wingtip strobes come on and stay lighted for longer, it's definitely noticeable. They light up like some of the aircraft animations you've seen before. My question is, was this done on purpose by Boeing or is there some other reason for the change?
