737 windscreen wipers

Featured Replies

all, i have the 737NG on Flight simulator 2004. When it is rainy, i go on the overhead panel and turn both left and right windscreen wiper switches, but the wipers never move. What is happening?robbie

then what's the point of it being mentioned in the manual?

It does move, but only in VC NOT 2D pannel

as far as ive understood its only the 800/900 version that has working wipers and they are only viewable in VC mode

i tried the VC! What on earth??

All electrical systems online?

yup, battery on, APU off, APU bleed off, APU Generators on. mabey the simulator has a glitch in itrobbie

do you have the -800/900 and the model update for the -600/700 ?

nope. I was meaning to get the 747-400, so i aint getting that

Robbie,The wipers are working. But only in the 800/900 package or the 600/700 package with the models update mentioned above. Are you using downloaded or boxed version?Have you tried outside view? Should work there as well.Cheers,

Is there a way to get rid of the wipers in the flight model itself? I find them very annoying when trying to land. They prevent a good view of the outside surroundings since they are positioned in such a way to almost obscure a good visual approach...Anybody know of a quick fix?jack

i have the boxed version
