February 19, 20215 yr Does anyone know how to adjust this, its very noticable in the small prop singles, the view out the windscreen is noticeably darker than the view out the side windows regardless of orientation and external light conditions, its been apparent since release and combined with the exaggerated low sun effect at this time of year it makes landing at some grass strips in the UK extremely hard as you lose sight of the strip when below 500 ft. The aircraft in question do not have tinted front screens so their comparative darkness is entirely unrealistic
February 19, 20215 yr Maybe a combination of reflections in the windscreen/visual artifacts from the curvature and thicker glass (to withstand birdstrikes)? There are definitely some situations where low sun combined with haze can make it difficult to get a good view at the runway ahead even in an airliner approaching a big runway.

February 19, 20215 yr Author Oh I fly light taildraggers irl and have an appreciation of the factors you mention the forward view darkness in the sim is independent of these factors and just exaggerates poor visual condition, thanks for the tip though ill check it out
