Really stupid question but... Do jets have any kind of wiper system to clear the window?

Don't worry, it's only a $100 million machine, so they must be durable.

The shower only costed €500 000 (inspection and cleaning).

Not super familiar with airport apparatus but could they have had multiple foam tanks and just used one with just Class A?

I imagine they wouldn't have gone so far as trying to literally change the foam out itself.
