And yes, all glass degrades, no matter what quality it is and the quality of glass back in 1940 wasn't even remotely comparable to todays standards in the automobile or aviation industy.

By the way, it's not just absurdly obvious scratches. A tiny amount of "texture" is probably what describes the issue best. CoD glass looks as if it's not even there. Anyone with real world experience knows that you will always be able to see a glass surface. due to very fidel textures and reflections. This is well done even in Wings of Prey but in CoD I don't feel imerged at all.
good maintenence makes glass scratches unniticable.

i flew a 1946 plane with original glass, and it looked cristal clear.

AS opinion keep it as it is. its good.

But by your logic, we shouldn't have the current weathering effect on planes because good maintenance.

Scratches should appear more depending on the weathering slider.

Yes,I would like to see the scratches appear more pronounced as weathering slider is moved up,I really like this idea.

I like the effect in Wings of Prey. All it does really is give a slightly nicer impression that there's a medium between you and the sky. I had a go of WOP the other day and it was one of the first things I noticed, apart from the fact that cockpits are much more completely modeled in CloD.
