When driving a car you are only looking 100ft to 1/4 mile away but when flying a plane you're looking for other planes 2 miles away or more. That's why you need the clearest lenses made. The AV-Suns were designed just for pilots! |
AV-Suns feature
gradient tint! It is difficult for pilots to see maps and instruments when looking through dark tinted lenses. AV-Sun aviator sunglasses feature gradient tint that fades to clear on the bottom of the lens. Your view of the panel, instruments, and aviation maps will be bright, sharp and clear! CR-39 lens material used on all AV-Suns! CR-39 is the clearest lens material available, a necessity to see air traffic far away. |
|
AV-Suns are not polarized. Polarized sunglasses should not be worn by pilots because they block glare making it difficult to see air traffic or the screen on a GPS. We do not sell polarized sunglasses. The glare from an approaching plane is the first thing you see to avoid a mid-air. | ||
Regular
AV-Suns
(No
Bifocals) Sunglasses for pilots with excellent vision. Feature gradient tint with UV protection, the same tint as used by U.S. fighter pilots! Allow you to see air traffic under bright conditions outside and maps and instruments under low light conditions inside. See air traffic and read aviation maps/GPS/panel instruments without removing glasses!
AV-Sun
Readers
(With Bifocals) Bifocals are cut low on the lens so your vision outside the plane is not distorted. AV-Sun readers are available in your choice of bifocal strength. Read aviation maps, GPS, panel instruments and see air traffic with one pair of glasses! |
||
Some pilots use
two pairs of glasses, sunglasses to see outside
and reading glasses to see instruments and
aviation maps inside. It can be a hassle to
change glasses when at the controls. That is why
the AV-Sun Reader bifocal sunglasses were developed, to put the
focus back on flying. AV-Sun Readers function as both reading and sunglasses. You will no longer need to change glasses when at the controls as you only need one pair of glasses. |
||
Aviation professionals who wear AV-Sun's agree they are "the best aviator sunglasses available for pilots!" |
AV-Sun sunglasses feature the clearest of
lenses. We use aviator gray tint from BPI Inc.
BPI Inc. developed the color for U.S. fighter pilots who make life and death decisions in a split second. The tint will not change the color of what you look at. The tint gently fades to clear at the bottom of the lens and will not distort your vision. AV-Suns are available in durable titanium frames or traditional gold. Titanium frames are flexible for a more comfortable fit. |
|
It's important that you are not distracted when
at the controls. Pilots must multitask, see air
traffic, read maps, scan instruments, enter
frequencies, navigate and communicate over the
radio. Men and women pilots who wear reading
glasses need AV-Sun's. It's a hassle to remove a
headset to change glasses. You need sunglasses
to see outside and reading glasses to see maps
and instruments inside. Pilots like AV-Sun
Readers because they allow you to do both with
one pair of glasses. You will no longer need to
change glasses when at the controls. AV-Sun's look great on men and women and are available in several styles. AV-Sun aviaton sunglasses are simply the best option for pilots. |
