Re: Serengeti
SOme days the Serengeti's can make the diference between seeing somthing (like another a/c) and not. Wouldn't fly without them.
Revos are nice but polarized. The reason why many don't wear poalarided besides the windscreen is that anyone in a glass cockpit cannot wear them. Seems that the LCD displays of modern a/c are on the same wavelength as the polarization. And when your head it turned a certain direction the screens go blank.
Try it with you cell phone. Put said polarized glasses on. Hold Cell at 45 degrees (in you right hand, 2 o'clock) not turn the cell phone and watch it go blank. Neat stuff.
