I have not had a chance to use them in the air, but I do not think that they provide the sharp cloud definition that I enjoyed with my SunTiger sunglasses. Jim |

You could look he http://www.suntiger.com/
I use Tifosi sunglasses with built in reading lenses. They work very well for me. Note: You probably don't want polarized glasses. They mess up reading some of your instruments (mine, at least).

These gentleman who owns the store (whose name escapes me) was great to work with. Advice - call and talk to him. You get a better price on the phone than on-line.
My $0.02 - I now fly with dark polarized lenses in all but the flattest light. After going back and forth between the non-polarized Sun Tigers and the polarized dark (mirrored) lenses, I settled on the polarized dark glasses. Both are prescription glasses with variable bi-focal lenses. I always carry the Sun Tigers to the field "just in case". Lou |

I have purchased them for several years and had excellent service from Edgar Garcia at Elton Optics in Las Vegas. Web site at http://sunglasspolarized.net/
lists Sun Tiger - Avian 515 for Soaring Pilots. |

I called Elton Optics and the call was answered by Eagle Eyes automated service. I used to order his Avian 515 Non-Polarized Lens. They are great and the service was very good. |
