Can the light rain plane fly normally?

When it rains, the plane can fly normally.

In many cases, the flight can't take off normally because the high-altitude cumulonimbus clouds have passed or because of the strong convective weather in the sky. Rainy days will cause downward flow at low altitude. When the plane flies to this area, it may lose some lift, and the greater the rainfall, the greater the descending airflow, and the greater the probability and amplitude of altitude drop. This is also the reason why the plane will not take off and land in the case of heavy rain.

Thunderstorm weather can't take off, because the plane is a metal fuselage, which is easy to attract lightning and affect the safety of passengers. Heavy rain may cause the engine to stall. Generally speaking, as long as it is not a rainstorm, and the rainfall process includes phenomena that are harmful to nature, such as strong winds and lightning, the plane can take off normally.

How does the plane take off in rainy days?

1, electric windshield brush system. The wiper on an airplane is similar to that on an automobile, except that it must also bear high-speed aerodynamic loads. Modern aircraft generally have two windshield brushes, which are used for takeoff, approach and landing respectively.

2. Chemical rainproof agent system. Many civil airliners have chemical rainproof systems. Windshield and rainproof system is generally used in heavy rain and high-speed flight. When flying in rainy days, spray chemical rainproof agent on the windshield. Under the scouring of rain, the rain cloth forms a film on the windshield to keep the windshield dry.

3. Permanent waterproof coating. Due to the poor maintenance performance of windshield rain eliminator system, many aircraft use permanent waterproof coating and windshield brush to achieve the purpose of effective drainage.
