Ultimate Aviator Goggles
Plural: Ultimate Aviator Goggles
The word "ultimate" gets bandied around a lot these days, but when it comes to these goggles it's not an understatement. Not only do they grant the wearer the ability to fly (just how, nobody knows, but it's safe to say that if you're going to have an object that allows you to fly it might as well be goggles, because otherwise the wind and bugs will make a mess of your eyes) but they're coated with a special blend of films to enhance specific aviation-critical frequencies. This allows for superb visibility of terrain, buildings, power lines, and (coincidentally) plax chips. The tradeoff is a diminished visibility in most other non-critical frequencies and a slight tendency to tunnel vision. But who cares, because you can fly!
