I have heard from time-to-time that Sun Tiger sunglasses work well for
soaring. Since I fly within 30 miles of the 1/10th busiest airport in
the world, anything that will increase my chances of seeing another
aircraft is something I want to take advantage of. It also turns out
that Sun Tigers are local, and not particularly expensive.
Opinions either pro or con are welcomed.
Thanks,

My eyeglasses for soaring have Zeiss Skylet Fun glass.
They have a somewhat different spectral transmission to normal sunglasses,
designed by the German soaring pilot and professor for electro optics

Put www. in front of zeiss to see the page.

Has anyone transmission spectra of the other sunglasses discussed here?
