Original Flight Hardware: Wiper



The Wiper panel on the L-1011 is one of two panels that controls the rain repellant and the windshield wipers on the Lockheed L-1011. This panel had to be one of the simplest panels on the L-1011. There is a momentary switch that actuates the repellant system that draws fluid from a pressurized container on the back wall of the cockpit, and, a switch that controls the speed of the windshield wiper on the first officer side of the L-1011.
