Default Bugs on the windshield

Every time I fly one of my real airplanes, I get bugs on the windshield
and wings. I'm confused about this because MSFS doesn't have bugsplats on
the screen.

What is wrong with my real airplanes? How do I avoid getting bugs on the
windshield? There must be something wrong with reality, because it doesn't
happen in MSFS. Yet, it seems to happen every time I fly in the summer.

I know that it can't be happening, because my monitor never has any bugs
on it after I play MSFS. So, what is wrong with reality?


Apparently you don't have all the hardware you need. If not already
available, I'm sure USB bug, rain and hail slingers will be available soon.

That's 'cause they spray PAM on their monitors like the RV drivers do in
Mississippi and Louisiana. That way the bugs wipe right off the monitor.
When those guts dry up, it's like glue.

By the way, a great way to simulate IMC in MSFS is to cover the top half of
your display with Whiteout.
