[NSRCA-discussion] DriveWear Glasses

[Bob Richards]

I know about the head tilt, that was not the issue. It had to do with the different look of the plane as it changed orientation during flight.

I've tried flying with polarized.  If you don't consider the LCD portion and just look at the flying portion, it's fine....if you don't move your head (aka tilt).  If you maintain a perfectly straight head, it's not bad but let me just say that I don't know a single person that doesn't tilt their head when flying.  When you tilt, it changes the polarization "look" and the sky totally changes.  Try this just looking up at the sky and tilting your head side to side.  You'll see the difference.  Any of these companies you decide to go with can get you non-polarized lenses but sometimes you have to specify.

I tried - and rejected - using polarized lenses for flying pattern. I thought it would be a good idea, but ended up not liking it. Can't really explain why, just remember not liking it.

I bought a pair of Oakley prescription glasses.  For our purposes (model aviation), I was told NOT to get the polarized version.  Mine are amazing and worth the money paid.

Polarized lenses often make it difficult, if not impossible, to read the LCD display on our radios because the direction of polarization in glasses is 90 degrees opposite the polarization of the LCD film.

Does anybody have experience wearing DriveWear lens while flying?

I am going to be buying new prescription glasses soon and would like to consider all possibilities.
