Whether flying models or real planes, I won't used polarized lenses. You'll also find that if your vehilce has tinted windows, you won't get the polarized effect because most tint also is polarized. They effectively cancel each other out. Polarized lenses are made to get rid of a lot of the horizontal reflected light such as a boater gets on the water or a driver gets from a wet surface of road.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif;color:rgb(0,0,255)"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif;color:rgb(0,0,255)">Scott</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><b style="color:rgb(51,51,255)"><font style="font-family:comic sans ms,sans-serif" size="4">Scott A.

<div style="margin:0px;font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12px;color:#000;background-color:#fff">Tried these over the last couple of months with the following results:
</div>
<div style="margin:0px;font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12px;color:#000;background-color:#fff"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin:0px;font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12px;color:#000;background-color:#fff">Excellent results when sun was low angle (e.g., in morning with sun in eyes or evening at other fields when sun is in eyes). The glasses provide better clarity and sharper image as well as better optical comfort, particularly in these conditions.</div>
<div style="margin:0px;font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12px;color:#000;background-color:#fff"><br>
</div>
<div style="margin:0px;font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12px;color:#000;background-color:#fff">Poor results when sun is very high, just overhead, like around noon-ish. Plane is hard to see or takes more concentration to see at certain angles (like coming out of a radius after a stall turn with 1 1/4 snaps at the end of the box where I'm looking at mainly the leading edge under side of the wing).</div>

</div>
<div style="margin:0px;font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12px;color:#000;background-color:#fff">I'm thinking that the sun casts "shadows" between the polarized lines of the glasses. This is assuming that the polarized lines are horizontal (I'm pretty sure but not positive).</div>

<div style="margin:0px;font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif;font-size:12px;color:#000;background-color:#fff">Bottom line, I like them for some conditions, but not all the time.</div>
