Hi Fred,

Well I have the bronze in my aircraft.  At the time I purchased my kit it
was all that was on offer, and at that time the design criteria of the
aircraft was for day VFR use.

I can say for night flying it is worse than useless, so much so I that I
will never land at night unless its my own airport.  I am probably going to
fit the biggest, brightest, meanest Xe light I can find to try and solve the
problem this winter.

For day use its quite nice.  I supplement the shading with some stick on
automotive screens that are intended to protect infants in the back seat
---From the sun.  These work well and fold up to be quite small.  For
additional eye protection I have some sun glasses with the same tint.  This
shade really does help with the cloud definition.

Paul
