 Just accept it friends, if oil lines are hit, your visibility is limited, period. No other way to get rid of the gunky smears and just fly normal and happy, nor should anyone expect to do so.

 If oil lines are hit, call for help, and run home.

What about the oil lines UNDER the plane?

I think I would prefer a gradually increasing density of oil film........... although I can appreciate that given the myriad forms of oil leak inducing engine failure possible.......there will be some that seem to dump oil almost immediately on the windscreen.

Can the Zebra Stripes be more random? Or are all zebras of the same stripes? :D

If people are willing to buy better computers to replicate fluid dynamics of liquid stream hitting a glass.. sure, why not?!
