Post by Jean »

I found this exciting news on General Aviation News site.
One of the Aero Glass team members, Akos Maroy, is a DAN member :thumbsup: .
Hope those of you who will attend Airventure will give us some Pireps !

That's the first use for google glass that I would consider. I could care less about video taping everything.

The demo video is pretty sweet. The checklist really caught my attention, and it got better from there.

I'm just imagining myself wearing headset, HUD glasses, oxygen cannula. Going to look totally ridiculous. :)

The new Epson glasses look much better than Google Glass. You going to be an early adopter Jean?

It looks very cool but with a DA40, the only place I would wish I had it might be an emergency landing in the soup. The ILS corridor might be nice but I prefer flying when I can enjoy the scenery.

You'll have to wait until this gear is TSO'ed before you can do this. Might not be tomorrow.
