I have seen some of the pilots that fly them jump planes outside of the dz I would rather jump than suffer a landing with them lol

Will take a photo of my goggles tomorrow and post them up they got interchangeable lenses you can have dark yellow or clear so they good for all roadster conditions

Carefull ! Been pilot for few years,always walked away from landing never jumped,done that too !

Got to be Biggles type goggles.......

Biggles goggles are only suitable when accompanied by sheep skin jacket leather hat and white silk scarf

I used to have my ppl myself a long time ago without crashing but once went up with one of the skydive pilots and had a landing in a cessna 206 turbo the pilot knackered the landing up and ripped the nose gear off he bruised my knee

But the best was an in islander the port engine packed up at 8k as the pilot turned round to say "think we got a problem here lads" all he saw was the last pair of ankles going out the door lol

I use Biggles goggles because they fit over my glasses. I can't be bothered with contacts in the mornig, so kit car shades are out of the question, and a full helmet is often too restrictive. And riding without the windscreen you get some sand in your face.

Just seen this thread... some biggles goggles turned up in the post this morning as it happens :D

You cant use them till you got the hat coat and scarf and photos of you wearing them of course

I've got the hat, but still need a scarf and coat... have a look on my build thread :o
