I wear Polar Eyes ($50 from Aircraft Spruce or polareyes.com,
including a hard case and cleaning cloth). I love them! They are very lightweight and comfortable. I find the polarized lenses actually accent the contrast of another plane against the sky. I prefer the copper colored lenses. They have just a touch of blueblocking, but won't make daisies look black. I have seen a couple of canopies that produced some very mild color banding, but most don't. Also, the rotation of thermals tends to create a 'polarized' effect when they pick up dust, pollen, grass, etc. You can see thermals for miles with Polar Eyes. You can also see details in clouds that aren't visible with non-polarized lenses, and they cut through haze very well. As for the post about the FAA 'asking' someone not to wear polarized lenses, I'd 'ask' them take a hike! |
