What type of Ray Ban lenses are most appropriate for flying?

Hi, I need some new sunglasses and want to buy the right ones from the start. So, what I would like to know is what type of lenses that are most appropriate for flying? I'll buy Ray Bans, should they be Green ( G15 ) or Brown ( B15 )? From what I understand the difference is that if you're using green lenses the colors are more natural, while brown I guess gives you sharper color/edges?

Finally polarized or not? Polarized take away glare ( which is the main reason to why I need new ones ) but might disort the image when looking at LCD screens. To be able to fly/drive while the sun is low I guess polarized are better, or will non polarized perform as good in those conditions?

Anyone who knows something I'll be happy to hear it.
