All,
I'm picking out a new pair of sunglasses for soaring and I had a few
questions.
Has anyone had problems seeing their PDA while flying with Polarized
lenses?
I used to fly with polarized lenses. What I found is that you have to
be careful that the polarizations of the screen and the lenses didn't
interfere. For the LCD devices I flew with at the time (GPS-NAV
screen, digital battery monitor), I pretty much got lucky and they
worked fine. But I noticed that with some other devices, for example
my FRS walkie-talkies, I had to hold the device sideways to read the
display.
Bottom line, I'd suggest taking the PDA with you when you try out the
sunglasses.
Thanks, Bob K.
