patroller windows

[Tom Turner]

Has anyone had vibration or noise problems after installing patroller windows in the front and rear. I have them in the front but have heard rumours of problems when installed front and rear.

Always a good question.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a 182 with rear patrol windows - or even heard of it. Do you mean a bubble window? or a true patrol window which is the extra window below the main window?

Bubble windows

With bubble windows, you'll be okay. The rivets around the window see some more force than with regular windows so in 10-20 years or like 1000 flight hours it might loosen it's way up. I wouldn't worry about it and just address it if/when it shows up. Best of luck!
