RE: For WSIWYG

The windscreens are made up of several laminates of glass combined with gold for UV filtration (and hence a replacement unit costs a six figure sum). However it is very far from being able to prevent all the UV from getting through. There is even a significant amount of UV penetration through the aircraft skin.
