This Super Hood is one of the safest, most comfortable and best made instrument train- ing hoods weve found anywhere. Ideal with eye glasses or headsets it slides in under the headset without relinquishing control of the aircraft and it can be instantly removed at any time for a safe approach or landing. Blocks outside reference but provides a full panel view to reduce vertigo. Light weight (3 ozs.) and comfortable. |
I wear progressive glasses and the foggles that came with my ppl kit just were not good for me. This hood is perfect for anyone wearing glasses or not. Comfortable and easy to put on in flight and fits under the headset.

Plastic visor portion is uncomfortable but clipping the hood to a more traditional hat or visor works great. Much better than foggle designs. I even found a large enough visor that the whole apparatus fit over my headset as well which made it much easier to put on or remove and comfortable with glasses.
Works great with your own hat. Does not completely block out peripheral vision, Added a little tape to the rear edge to take care of that.
