Try this one, on the overhead.


Indications:
Wet screen, bad sight, no noise = wipers off
Wet screen, bad sight, noise = wipers on  Grin

The wiper control is a rotary knob on the overhead panel below the pedestal flood lights and above the emergency lights switch.  You can see it in this picture:

CoolP is right on!  Grin

The wipers on the 727 only make noise. Second only to the trim wheel!  Shocked

Pilots only used the rain repellent once. They would never use it again if they had to clean the windshield themselves.

The wipers work in the Captain Sim 727. CoolP and Lou are just telling you that the wipers on the real 727's were not very efficient (were useless). Wink
