Reviewer - cafirechief Location - , NC Date - 12-30-2011 Pilot Rating - Student Overall Durability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Tinted IFR Training Glasses These are great to use on sunny days. I don't like fitting the clear ones over my sunglasses. So I use these tinted ones to reduce glare and eye strain from the sun. ConsI wish there was a hard case made for these.

Reviewer - N4594C Location - , MI Date - 12-26-2011 Pilot Rating - Private Overall Durability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes |  Good foggels ConsCan't wear over my glasses. General CommentsI thought I was going to have to give these to someone that did not use reading glasses as they wouldn't work over my glasses. But then I saw an add for the stick on reading lense kit. After putting them on the foggels, it is clear that they will work fine for me now. |

Date - 10-6-2011 Pilot Rating - Instrument OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Easy to use as expected. Precision frosting is spot on. ConsSeem a little fragile. A sturdy holding case would be nice. I'm often worried they will be crushed when not being used. General CommentsI would buy them again. |

Reviewer - Pete Mast Date - 9-21-2011 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Good price for the little instrument training that you need for Private. I bought these because they fit over my prescription glasses, and they did. ConsNothing too special. The earpeices are adjustable, but were too loose and wouldn't hold the position you wanted. The did fit over my prescription glasses, but not real well. They'd kinda flop around on my face a bit. General CommentsI'll definitely be looking for something else when I go for my Instrument rating, but they were reasonable enough for the few hours needed for Private. They may do better if you're not putting them on over normal glasses. It is a good price. |

Date - 8-2-2011 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Simple and small I bought this product to get away from the bulkier hoods I used to carry. These goggles are so small and light, you can always have them in your flight bag. ConsThe build quality of these glasses is good, but being more complex in construction, they are more fragile than the simple gray plastic-and-rubber-band hoods.

Reviewer - RonCangro Location - USA, NJ, Atco Date - 7-21-2011 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Comfortable design, Fits well with my David Clark headset, Fits over my prescription glasses, and precision frosting right on target. ConsNone. General CommentsI have only had them for less than a month, so I can't comment on durability, but they are in my flight bag with no problems thus far. |

Date - 6-17-2011 Pilot Rating - ATP OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Fit over wrap-around sunglasses and under David Clark H10-13.4's. Big plus. ConsNone yet. General CommentsDo a good job of blocking any outside reference. I forgot I had them on after only a few minutes. |
Date - 6-1-2011 Pilot Rating - Instrument OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Look snazzy. More stylish than goggle type foggles or a hood. Flexible and easy to put on under headphones. Comfortable to wear. ConsThey don't cover as much of upper eye area as expected. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 5-25-2011 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Light set of glasses. Great to have the wrap around feature so there is no need to put a map on the edge of the windshield. Consshipping was almost half the cost of the glasses. I suppose with some planning and buying more from Sporty's that could have been less of a percentage. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
