Dear friends and followers, welcome back to my channel, today´s video is a follow-up video to my recent topic, what´s in a pilots bag, I mentioned you shouldn´t buy polarized sunglasses as a pilot, and today I´ll be showing why!
Now before we talk about a normal set of sunglasses and a pair of polarized ones and how they affect your vision we quickly need to discuss unpolarized and polarized light waves.
The light emitting from the sun releases light particles, better known as Photons. These photons vibrate up and down, or side to side creating a bundle of light waves flying towards planet earth.
Which means that the light provided by the sun flys in horizontal or vertical waves, therefore making the light waves unpolarized.
But, the sunlight can untangle itself pretty easily. Those light particles just have to strike something, like a lake or in our case clouds, and they'll start vibrating in the same direction.
Meaning all the photons start oscillating in the direction that's perpendicular to that surface. So, the light particles that bounce off a horizontal surface will then begin oscillating vertically.
Meaning the reflected particles suddenly have fallen into sync reflecting as polarized light.
Which brings us back to our polarized sunglasses. I admit the name was not well chosen, they should have called them "sunglasses with vertical or horizontal bars", which are able to block polarized light.
So let´s say the sun light which gets reflected off a cloud, is coming vertically towards you, giving you that nasty glare. Now if you put on your polarized sunglasses with "horizontal bars" in them, they will block the vertical light waves and reduce the glare.
Now you´ll think that´s great, cause pilots see sunlight reflecting clouds most of their time, so why can´t they wear polarized sunglasses? Here comes the problem!
Watch the rest of the video to learn more about polarized sunglasses influence your vision in a modern airliner cockpit!
Thanks for watching, all the best your "Captain" Joe

I remember flying to Schipol once on a layover, I'd been wearing sunglasses to sleep whilst on the plane and when I disembarked I had to carry my two bags around so didn't have a way to take my glasses off (didn't need to anyway, as I could see fine). However I then spent about 5 minutes wandering around the airport wondering why all the flight information monitors were switched off - after a while I realised it was my glasses and promptly took them off! :p

When I was an aircraft mechanic we had a pilot reject a takeoff because he thought his instruments went blank. Turns out he was wearing some fancy polarized sunglasses. Whooops

[@stevemagnuson7051]

As an A&P and a Pilot, I had a good laugh at that one! Plenty of pilots have no clue how the simple stuff works!

[@WardenWolf]

This is a problem that's going to go away eventually. Newer generations of LCD screens like you'll see on smartphones and monitors don't really suffer from this. When these screens finally make their way into aviation, it'll become a non-issue for most aircraft.

I live in florida by the oceans and many lakes so polorized glasses are very useful. but for years they would eiether block the screen or change the colors of the display. anyways with this new phone the screen works like normal whether i were polorized glasses or not.

[@823Steve]

Interesting video. Several years ago I bought an ATV. When I first got it everything seemed fine until one sunny day when I donned my sunglasses, every time I turned sharply the LCD display would go blank. Thinking there was a mechanical defect I took it back to the dealer. After going over it and not finding anything wrong with it. I decided to use it and see what developed. As you can guess, I discovered quite by accident it was my polarized sun glasses.

"Polarized lenses may also interfere with visibility through an aircraft windscreen by enhancing striations in laminated materials and mask the sparkle of light that reflects off shiny surfaces such as another aircraft’s wing or windscreen, which can reduce the time a pilot has to react in a “see-and-avoid” traffic situation."

I agree Joe, we should start a petition to rename polarized glasses "sunglasses with vertical or horizontal bars which are able to block polarized light". Super sexy name.

[@flywithcaptainjoe]

Haha, thanks Dan !

[@techblogger8323]

Technically they are still polarized though, because they block certain light waves (ugh I forget the proper name) only letting them oscillate in one plane only.

I was first introduced to a cockpit in Flight Simulator 1995, and the concept of such a complicated machinery being kept in air, is what attracted me to modern aircraft, ending up playing Flight Simulator 2000 and X. Always wanted to fly one first hand, but before that dream comes true, this channel gives me the closest experience one can get, and the deeper insights about the machinery and its functioning.

Thank you Captain Joe !!!!! I run heavy equipment and the displays are LCD screen and they would go black or have waves on the screen and I've always wondered why that happens !!!!!!

[@allanrichardson1468]

I've noticed this effect when pumping gas at some stations, where I can't see the displays on the pump when wearing sunglasses unless I turn my head sideways. And someone on KZbin posted a video on how to make an invisible laptop screen (if you don't care about voiding the warranty) by removing the polarizing filter layer. The screen looks pure white when turned on, unless you wear polarized sunglasses. Then you can see the display!

Light can also be circularly polarised, and this can be used in LCD screens as well. In fact a lot of modern cars have them fitted so that you can use polarised shades with them - works like a charm for me. (Doesn’t help with the window issue, though.)

Fun thing about polarized sun glasses.. You can turn them 90* to each other and it will black out, but if you introduce a third one at a 45* angle it will no longer be blacked out but brighter and the more you introduce at mid turns the brighter it seems to become.

They have 'circular' polarization now - which is used in 3D movies - and so you'll be able to use polarizing sunglasses with the new instruments. But even with this, best to go with normal non-polarized sunglases for all 'back-lit' displays.

They may not meet your standards but may still be a good person, not cheap or an idiot.
