"MichaelR" wrote in message ... Why do airliner cockpit windows have heaters? The answer is to keep the windows warm enough and flexible enough so they don't shatter if they hit a bird. Why do they run them at altitudes that birds don't fly? If Mythbusters had cooled that side window to -50C, it would have disintegrated when the bullet hit it.
