You may want to create a separate report (if no existing one) since it is a different issue than the captain side wiper animation issue.

@Eddrik84 And when creating that report, I believe it would be pertinent to mention that wipers on neither side of the AT76 actually clear rain, though the movement of those wipers is very good.

Im just thinking how this obvious thing was not noticed , do they not test anything before they release it??

Just like the real aircraft :rofl:

Is there any end these Bug Reports on the ATR??? I visit the site everyday and it’s getting tedious to go thru all the reports on an aircraft I don’t fly…

Bug reports exist so issues can be tracked and fixed. If you don’t fly the ATR, you can simply ignore the ATR section. The alternative would be not reporting bugs, which certainly wouldn’t improve the aircraft. Every report helps developers identify recurring issues and prioritize fixes.

Difficult to ignore when I log into the site and am presented with 20-30 (or more) new topics and unread posts. I like to browse thru them to see if anything pertains to my interests. Pray tell, how do I ignore the many ATR bug reports without having them pile up as unread? Is there a way to take them out of my browsing or do I have to pan down through all of them to get to a post that is of interest?
