HPNPilot1200
En-Route
I was flying a trip in the Phenom 100 yesterday and noticed that forward visibility was somewhat blurry with the WHCU's (windshield heat control unit) on. We turned them off briefly and noticed that items in the windscreen began to appear much more clearly. Other owners and operators have reported similar observations but I was curious as to what type of interference or design characteristic would cause this. Any experience or ideas regarding blurry vision with electrical windshield heat?
Not such a big deal up in the flight levels, but down low looking for traffic and transitioning to final approach it was somewhat distracting.
