Default Flying through rain

What really does change when you fly something like a Skyhawk through
thick rain?

I just do sims, and all that happens there is a lot of noise and pretty
raindrop smears on the the windshield but the performance seems unchanged.

What happens in real life?


About the same thing that happens when you drive fast in thick rain without
windshield wipers except you don't have to worry about hydroplaning until
you land.
