Can anyone explain bug smashing?

I can drive my car around for a month, often at 80 mph on the freeways and
maybe get two or three bugs on the windshield.

Yet an airplane has every leading edge covered in layer of dried bug in a
matter of days.

Wouldn't you think there wouldn't be any bugs up there at 3,000+ feet. If
they are up there, why are they there? All the food is down here on the
surface.



Come on Dallas, that's an easy one. The bugs know where the roads are and
avoid us. In the air we have the advantage of stealth!! They have no idea
where to expect us, and can't possibly out run us!!!! AAAHHHHHH HA HA HA
HA HA HA HA!!!!

No, actually I think it's because we probably just wash our cars a lot more
often than our rental planes. Ever looked at the belly?
