When the hot summer days are coming, lots of men like to equip them with a pair of aviator sunglasses. They wear them for outside activities such as riding and fishing. With the help of them, they don't worry about the harmful UV radiations from the sun rays. Thus, aviator sunglasses have become more and more popular in recent years.
It is about twenty years since aviator sunglasses first popularized. Have you ever seen the film of Top Gun? In the film, aviator sunglasses were interpreted by Tom Cruise delicately. And the cool image of him is impressive and he has been many women's idol. It can be said that aviator sunglasses in the 80s last century has received heated extolling. Hollywood stars regard them as being fashionable and wearing them for fashion shows.
Although these aviator sunglasses are first invented for pilots to avoid the sun glares, they are now widely worn by sorts of people. The aviator sunglasses are particularly suitable for men, which can make them look cool as well as providing UV radiations. Even men who need to wear glasses for vision correction, there are prescription aviator sunglasses for men. They can be supplied at most optical stores.
Some people may wonder why these aviator sunglasses are so popular. I think the most important point is that they can meet eyewear users' needs to the great degree. Everyone hopes to get what they have paid for. It is believed that aviator sunglasses have already served their all purposes.

MULTIPLE AVIATION RELATED QUESTIONS...?
1. Does anyone know when the next Microsoft Flight Simulator will come out?
2. Are there any alternatives to Microsoft Flight simulator besides Flight Gear?
3. Is there anywhere in Canada where I can find an old cockpit to outfit for a flight simulator?
4. Does anyone know of a good enclosed 2 place enclosed STOL kit plane?
5. And finally, does anyone know what aircraft was used in the film "The Gods Must be crazy 2?
Thanks,
Sam
1.The next Microsoft FS may be delayed or cancelled. Microsoft just layed off many or all people involved in the project.
5.Several posts in newsgroups say that the plane was a modified Lanzair II:
First of all, it is worth noting that Emmerich extremely well chosen theme of the film and the time for its implementation. In fact, interest in the fact that according to the predictions of the Maya will take place in December 2012, extremely high. However, it is strange that the motive of the prophecies of the ancient Indians beat in "2012" and was not.
In general, it should be noted that the subject of the picture - it is the weakest in its place, because its creators have not been able to move away from the cliches of genre film-catastrophe.
In 2009, the Indian astrophysicist detect an active outbreak at the sun, adversely affecting the structure of the Earth's core. Evaluating all the catastrophic situation, the heads of the leading countries of the world are taking an unprecedented step. Inspired by the example of Noah's Ark, a few were built that could accommodate other people. But the problem is that one place on the ship is exactly one billion euros. Such huge amount of money in a failed writer Curtis Jackson, who saves his family, simply does not. That has to take the risk ...
Watching the adventures of main characters, an attentive audience more than once for more than two hours feel the effect of deja vu and remember such classics as "Armageddon," "Deep Impact" and others, and in passing, and noted that in terms of the original plot previous "apocalypse" Emmerich called "The Day After Tomorrow" is ahead of his new creations.
Yet let's be honest with ourselves and ask ourselves: "what in the end I was expecting from" 2012 "? I am sure that most will answer: "eye-popping special effects" or "total chaos happening on the screen. With visual near here everything is in order, and even more than that - to date "2012" is the best film-catastrophe in terms of the magnitude of the devastation taking place in it. Indeed, to remain indifferent when the screen is flying a military aircraft carrier to the White House or the ark face encounter with Mount Everest, is simply impossible. This time, the degree of "epic" in the picture Roland Emmerich rolls over. And, in this connection, the movie "2012" can be forgiven and the weak acting game, is absolutely meaningless dialogue and irrepressible fervor.
Despite its shortcomings, the yield of "2012" is a kind of final outcome or the new frontier. Emmerich gives new impetus to the entire genre. From now on, movie directors, disasters need to work bigger, more interesting and unusual, to avoid inappropriate comparisons. To assess the fidelity of this assumption can be as early as 2010, the scheduled release of a new saga on 2012 under the title "2012: War of Souls", the director who made another spectacular movie titan Michael Bay.
What type of aircraft were used to attack King Kong on top of the Empire State?
Either the origional or the new film are of interst to me as I am planning on building a diarama of the movie scene and my knowlege of interwar USAAF biplanes is zero.
Many thanks,
Chris
Replica Curtiss Helldivers (NOT the WW2 SB2C Helldiver). The planes used in the recent version of the movie are REPLICAS built by Peter Jackson of the Curtiss Helldiver biplanes used in the original 1933 movie. No original Helldivers exist today, and the replicas are static only, not airworthy. They are currently on the air show circuit as static displays.
The previous answerer would do well to read his own link..the Vought machine didn't enter service until 1936, 3 years after King Kong came out in theaters.

For those of you who don’t know what Lego Star Wars Minifigs are , and I had never heard of them until my 6 year old showed me some, then quite simply they are superb little renditions of the Star Wars characters made from Lego.
Lego Star Wars minifigs come in a huge range of designs and feature all of the main characters from both the Dark Side and the Rebel Alliance. They also cover all 6 of the Star Wars films and several other parts of the Star Wars universe. There are some designs available from the manufacturers, but for me the most remarkable thing about Lego Star Wars minifigs is the huge community that has sprung up dedicated to creating new and unique designs.
Many of these hand built minifigs are lovingly crafted from spare parts and include hand painted faces, metallic bodies and even light up eyes, light sabres and weapons. Some have hats, headpieces and even additional clothing – truly amazing! There have also been licensed Lego Star Wars minifigs which have featured unique head sculpts that differ from the traditional cylindrical shape. The first was Jar Jar Binks and Yoda and C-3PO have also made guest appearances.
Other variations of the standard Lego Star Wars minifigs included the light-up lightsaber (LULS) minifigures. These were released as a part of the more expensive Star Wars Episode III sets in 2005, and look like standard minifigs but contain internal electronics. When the head is pressed down, an LED lluminates the lightsaber blade – how cool is that!
So as you can see Lego Star Wars Minifigs are not just toys, they are true collectors items. This is even truer of the latest addition to the line – a solid gold C3-PO – now that’s a toy I wouldn’t mind playing with.

What Star Wars books should I read up to the Legacy of the Force series?
I'm a huge Star Wars fan, and I really want to read the Legacy of the Force series, but I'm trying to read a lot of the major Star Wars books before then so I'll have a better idea of what happened before then. I'm currently reading the Thrawn trilogy, and I've read the first 2 Jedi Academy books. What other books should I read in order to fully understand the Legacy series?
I am also a huge star wars fan and am currently reading the book star by star which is the 10th book in the New Jedi Order series and am on my way to reading the Legacy of the Force books too. But truth be told I am enjoying these books a lot! The plot is really good and each book has me totally addicted. Anyway, as to what books you should read, here is my list of books I think you should read before Legacy. I will also put one of these things * by each book that is really optional and really don't need to read it to understand Legacy, but is still a great read! Also this is completely in order of the star wars timeline of when all these books take place. So here goes...
The Truce at Bakura* (takes place right after ROTJ and is a great read)
X-Wing Series* (haven't read them yet, but hear they are awesome and will probably read them some time in the future) Includes:
-Rouge Squadron
-Wedge's Gamble
-The Krytos Trap
-The Bacta War
-Wraith Squadron
-Iron Fist
-Solo Command
-Isard's Revenge
-Starfighters of Adumar
The Thrawn Trilogy (one of my favorites and I think a need to read b4 NJO and Legacy)
Includes:
-Heir to the Empire
-Dark Force Rising
-The Last Command
The Jedi Academy Trilogy* (Haven't read, might be good, some people said it wasn't, Instead I would read the next book called I, Jedi)
I, Jedi (only SW book in 1st person. Main character is Corran Horn who is one of my favorite characters and is in the NJO series so you may understand him a bit more in that series if you read this book.)
The Crystal Star *********** (this is a completely OPTIONAL book! My advice: Don't read it. I read two chapters of this book and i couldn't stand it! save yourself the misery and stay away from this book!)
The New Rebellion* (Great read, read it if you want, doesn't matter if you don't)
The Hand of Thrawn Duology (Great books and would definitely read) Includes:
-Specter of the Past
-Vision of the Future
Survivor's Quest and Fool's Bargain* (Read it if you want, they're mostly about Luke and Mara, though not a necessary read.)
Junior Jedi Knights Series and the Young Jedi Knights Series* (Both series I have not read yet and I don't know if I want to. They might be good but I don't know. Either way, I haven't read them and I have had no trouble understanding the New Jedi Order series. Not going to list them cause there is a lot and a waste of time if you really wanna read Legacy as much as I do!)
The New Jedi Order Series (This series is required if you have any hope of understanding the Legacy of the Force Series. But not to worry, it is absolutely great! There are a few if not many depressing moments but there is some happy moments. There's lots of action, with either x-wings, blasters, or lightsabers. There is also a lot of philosophical stuff about how one should use the Force, in which I find rather interesting. I can't express how much I am enjoying this series, and I hope you like it as much as I do at the moment)
Includes:
-Vector Prime
-Dark Tide I: Onslaught
-Dark Tide II: Ruin
-Agents of Chaos: Hero's Trial
-Agents of Chaos: Jedi Eclipse
-Balance Point
-Recovery (e-book you might be able to find online, but is included as the prologue in the paperback version of star by star)
-Edge of Victory: Conquest
-Edge of Victory: Rebirth
-Star by Star
-Dark Journey
-Enemy Lines: Rebel Dream
-Enemy Lines: Rebel Stand
-Traitor
-Destiny's Way
-Ylesia (e-book, you will have to find it online)
-Force Heretic: Remnant
-Force Heretic: Refugee
-Force Heretic: Reunion
-The Final Prophecy
-The Unifying Force
The Dark Nest Trilogy (I heard this trilogy is really good and i am looking forward to reading it. I assume this is a bridge between the NJO and the Legacy series so I would read this b4 Legacy.)
Includes:
-The Joiner King
-The Unseen Queen
-The Swarm War
Legacy of the Force (And here's the series you want to read and I can hardly wait to read!)
Includes:
-Betrayal
-Bloodlines
-Tempest
-Exile
-Sacrifice
-Inferno
-Fury
-Revelation
-Invincible
Well there you go, those are my recommendations of what to read and I hope I was helpful! And sorry it was so long I kinda got carried away and I have nothing to do at the moment except answer questions! Anyway I hope you enjoy the books!

It is 2345EST and I need to laugh,what is the funniest line (intended or not) spoken in an aviation film?
Well, pilots, what have you seen spoken by actors in aviation movies that made you want to stand up and scream/laugh etc.
Or, even better, the comment was so far off from what they SHOULD have said, that you wanted to visit the writers and beat them about the cranial area, continuously, until they promised never to write for an aviation film again
Independence Day is a gem. It has the F/A-18 with the tail chute!
When they were explaining the launch of the Nuclear weapon from the alien craft Steve (Will Smith) remarks "It's just like the AMRAAM launch pad on a Stealth"
That was the first time I heard anyone say that either the B-2 or the F-117 carried AMRAAMs!
