    No problem, just the visibility through the canopy gets bad, no windshield wipers!

    Subject: Pulsar in the rain
    Flies fine in the rain. A Few Precautions: 1) Make sure you have a seal behind the leading edge of the canopy... otherwise, rain will sneak through underneath the canopy. 2) Don't fly if it's likely to hail. Hail can tear up the leading edge of your wing -- even if it is fiberglass. Even light hail will tear up your paint job.

    Subject: Re: Pulsar in the rain
    Light drizzle is particularly bad too. Just completely fogs up the canopy and does not disperse in the slipstream. Then if there is light from either side, or behind, it is almost impossible to see forward, because of the internal reflections. Been there, done that. Its like flying into cloud.
