Product description:
Easy to apply—just “slap on” and they stay put. Use it over and over just by peeling off and slapping on again. Dark green shade measures 5 1/2" x 8 1/2". Designed to prevent hazardous glare and blind spots caused by the sun. Better than a factory sun visor because you can see through it. Great for your car, too.

Great for early morning or late afternoon flights. Very easy to use and see through. Helps with the areas that the sun visors don't pick up.

Pros
Goes on with no problem. Blocks the sun and glare to an acceptable level.
Cons
Everything looks fuzzy looking through the shade. Other aircraft are a little difficult to see.
General Comments
While the shade blocks glare it creates a fuzzy spot that some would call a little hazardous. I would suggest to place the shield in such a way that it blocks the glare but to a point that you don't have to look around it to see other aircraft.

Be careful when ordering. There are two sizes, but the picture on the web site for both is the same; the large one.

Doesn't stick very well. Rub it on your head(hair) to generate some static so it will stick better. Not dark enough to block the direct sun.

Pros
Nice to have a smaller version of the XL shade so you can put it in smaller spaces, like on the windscreen when flying directly into the sun. Significantly reduces glare and makes the temperature much more comfortable in the airplane in warm months. Really nice in a bubble canopy.
Cons
None so far.
General Comments
My only wish is that this company would make custom sized shades, so I could put the "green stripe" tinting (a la T-28s and of the like) running the the length of the top of the canopy--that would be outstanding.

Pros
Easy to put anywhere on the windscreen. Easy to move and reapply as the sun shifts position. Works very well cutting down the glare. Provides great relief to the eyes.
Cons
If the visor gets folded and develops a crease, it will limit the ability of the visor to adhere to the windscreen.
General Comments
I have flown six ocean crossings in the F-16 either staring into an eight hour sunset or being flash blinded by brilliant sunrises. As you can well imagine, the canopy of an F-16 doesn't lend itself to a traditional sunvisor arrangement. I improvised with post-it notes, which worked alright, but I figured there had to be something better. This slap-on sunvisor was exactly what I was looking for! I used it on a flight from Alaska to Korea and back last week, and it worked much better than I anticipated. I am trying to convince my life support shop to buy them for the entire squadron!
