Wear & Tear in Free Flight, is it overly done?

Then I guess that St Mawgan was right.

Haha I fly default GA all the time and I barely ever see this happening despite being in SU4 but hey, you do you.

In the current FS2024 SU3, you can eliminate the bug splats on the windshield. Go to Settings/Graphics/Windshield Effects and set the choice to Medium rather than High. This does not affect the fuselage display.

aahh that rings a bell, as a while back I was flying through a rain cloud but didn't see rain drops on the windscreen. So IIRC I turned that setting up a notch so that could explain why the ear and tear is "new" to me, I'll have a look later thanks 👍

Perhaps it's a bit different in 2024 though as I always had that setting turned up in 2020 to see rain drops, I just never saw this amount of wear and tear in that Sim.
