Why are you getting wound up? What do you expect from a forum. Sometimes to us 'what has been flying towards the sun for years' we do things like that. In DC10's it was 'normal' to stuff a bundle of tissues in the cracks so that in a descent the condensation didn't soak you. The same with a shield - of ANY sort - to stop you have glare - which can be quite severe. Anyway, you will get all kinds of answers - some of which are humorous - take it as it comes.

Tarnished.

You are the same. But your profile with a PPL is a mix of aircraft that is hard to swallow. Perhaps you were in the air force perhaps you are a sim 'pilot' but I/we would assume that you are aware, if you know about these things.

You make some strange suggestions:

Why not have bone domes, liquid conditioning vests and adequate re-hydration delivered by the CSD?
That one is of course quite ludicrous. It would spoil the hairdo!

Try sitting under a green house canopy like the F-15 for 6 hours plus and see how hot it gets, not to mention trying to pee in a bag while strapped to a bang seat.
Really! Are you saying that it is necessary to hold a bag while you are flying? Please phrase your answer won't you.

Sorry, but I think its incredibly bad practice to obscure your field of view.
You really think that that one shield obscures ALL the view? Now I am worried about you.

I am giving you the benefit of the doubt but I REALLY need convincing.
