Paper Foggles

[Tarrow]

Huh. Yes, make your own foggles. Start with the template and use your scissors to fit. It won’t displace commercial foggles but it works in a pinch. I passed my last IPC with these. Have fun.

Paper Foggles

I guess those would do in a pinch?
I recently bought a new pair of foggles after 10 years of use of my old ones.
Then my CFII asked me if I had my own during my last IPC as he just bought a new pair for his students.

not that design, but I have had hoods made from file folders in my flight bag for several years now. Folds completely flat. I use them for pilots who don’t bring one (when I’m being nice).

Mine are based on “the best hood” which used to sell for $5 (it’s been rerandaded as “the feather hood” for >$25)

Apparently you can 3D print a small hood too.

I guess ya gotta find a way to justify the cost of a 3D printer.

Justifying the cost of a 3D printer is like justifying the cost of an airplane.

My first leather flying helmet came with a set of paper foggles. Didn't work so well, though, with just those tiny holes.
