Flying Eyes® Golden Eagle Sport® Standard Aviation Sunglasses
The Flying Eyes® Golden Eagle Sport® Standard is engineered for maximum protection, wraparound coverage, and all-day comfort under aviation headsets and helmets. Featuring the highest lens curvature in the Flying Eyes lineup, this sport performance frame delivers expanded peripheral vision while maintaining a lightweight, flexible fit built specifically for cockpit and professional use.
Key Features
ANSI Z87.1-2015 Certified: Impact-rated safety eyewear suitable for aviation, industrial, and tactical environments.
Headset-Friendly 1mm Temples: Ultra-thin Resilamide™ arms slide comfortably beneath modern noise-canceling headsets without creating pressure points or breaking the ear seal.
Maximum Wraparound Coverage: High-curvature sport design enhances peripheral protection and reduces side light intrusion.
100% UV400 Protection: Shatter-resistant polycarbonate lenses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays while maintaining clear, distortion-free optics.
The Golden Eagle Sport® Standard is favored by pilots, military personnel, engineers, and outdoor professionals who require certified eye protection without sacrificing headset compatibility. Unlike traditional safety eyewear with thick arms, the micro-thin 1mm temples help maintain proper headset ear seal and long-term comfort during extended operations.
Precision-manufactured polycarbonate lenses provide impact resistance and uncompromised clarity in bright daylight conditions. By default, lenses are non-polarized while blocking 100% of harmful UV light. Mirrored options are coated externally to preserve accurate color perception from the inside.
Bifocal options include a reader segment positioned 13mm from the bottom of the lens, allowing for clear instrument and chart viewing without excessive head movement.
Pilots HQ had the best price on the pump needed to replace the one on my plane that was failing. It actually shipped ahead of schedule, arrived quickly to my IA who was ale to install it and get me back in the air in a timely manner. Great service and price.
I stopped in looking for some very specific AN bolts. The ladies up front went way out of their way to help me find the bolts I needed. Got my annual done that weekend thanks to Pilot HQ.
