| Nominated by | El Grafo (talk) on 2017-06-17 10:49 (UTC) |
| Scope | Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope: Bug wipers, parking position |
| Used in | de:Mückenputzer |
| Reason | This image shows a bug wiper (a device for in-flight removal of dead insects from the leading edge of a glider's wing, commonly used at soaring competitions where you want to squeeze every last bit of performance out of your plane) in its parking position. A video like this would of course be much better, but at the moment that's the best Commons has to offer. If you look closely, you can even see the thin nylon string that does the actual wiping. -- El Grafo (talk) |
