I must admit, with over 15 years of daily Microsoft Flight Simming, I cant ever remember having, or seeing, a freeware (I only use freeware) aeroplane with a set of working Windscreen Wipers!

I can only suspect that they will only work if the Aircraft designer has purposely designed them into the original model of the aircraft.

Maybe some Pay-ware aircraft have them included?
I don't know?

I just avoid flying in the rain!... :lol: ...!

There are quite a few jets with working wipers. As for props let me take a look ....

I recently downloaded this package from Simviation.. FSND_FSX-B737Upgraded_Cockpitv21. and it has working wipers.. For a freeware product I consider it very good value

How do you turn on the wipers in the jets that have them?

Re jets generally, I do not know.. if they have been modelled with wipers I would guess via the above console where the switch usually is.

I must admit that when I perform a "Search" on our trusty Sim V Main Site, it is mostly unsuccessful, unless we accurately type in the exact wording necessary to find the result.
So.... I generally perform a; "Google Search" for EXACTLY what I am looking for, and it mostly comes up with various "suggestions"...often including Sim V ones!

Its the; "Power Of Google"....(like it-or not!) ...:D ... :D ...!
