MEDIA

I see the same. This is on SU5, with custom weather set to rain. In external view, I see rain on the rest of the airframe, but nothing on the windows.

I was going to try with live weather at an airport currently experiencing a rain storm, but live weather seems to be down for me at the moment, so I can’t check that scenario.

Can replicate with windshield effect set to high:

Also noticed raindrops are visible through the propeller cone:
