Abstract

A examination is made of some current types of aircraft windshield materials that reduce the amount of external light available to the pilot. From a technical literature survey is concluded that any tinting is undesirable, and appropriate recommendations are made for the spectral- transmissive properties of windshields and other windows used by flight crew. Auxiliary light- reducing devices (visors, sunglasses) are discussed.
