Hi all,
I generally avoid flying in the rain seeing that I fly mainly for pleasure. So I don't have a lot of experience there. In the last couple of weeks I couldn't avoid flying through some moderate rainfall. I noticed some peeling paint around some rivets and also a couple of bare spots on the cowling immediately behind the prop and a friend of mine said this is from flying in the rain. Is it this hard on paint? I was a little surprised. Like I said I don't have a lot of experience flying through rain. What are your experiences there?
