NickF1011 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2013/12/16/end-windshield-wiper/ One thing I think they are overlooking is road grime and dirt, something that aircraft don't typically encounter.

fordmantpw Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 uses high frequency sound waves to repel rain, bugs and other potential obstructions. Hmmm, very interesting. But yeah, how would it work with grime and dirt. Especially the crap you get in winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackinaw Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Yeah, I wonder how well it will work when your windshield is covered in frost some cold autumn morning. And how about snow and sleet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickF1011 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 I cant wait till that breaks on a rainy day I remember driving down the road in pouring rain in my old Mazda6 and one of the wipers just flew off. Talk about moment of panic though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickF1011 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 Scratch up that windshield!!! Thankfully I was quick enough to turn them off before the wiper arm managed to do any harm. Also thankful I had a hatchback. Pulled over to the shoulder and quickly swapped the blade from the rear wiper onto the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
