What about night time flying?

If we reach the point where that kind of protection is required, the best option is clear goggles coated to reflect the specific frequency of the laser used...

Problem is- how do you anticipate the frequency that will be used?

I do NOT want to fly with a pilot wearing dark sunglasses at night...

  - Yes, and the green scatters more than the red making a brighter "pointer". (n/t) - et - 1/21/2006 6:34:17 PM
