Flying to an Airshow? Take NuShield with you

If you are pilot of a small plane there is nothing more fun than flying around above the clouds. Attending airshows is a good way to meet other pilots, check out their planes and talk shop. There are numerous events taking place in 2018 and the Milavia website has a long list that goes on until November. Getting to the event requires navigation instrumentation and you probably rely on your laptop, tablet or even your phone that has an app such as ForeFlight MobileGarmin PilotJeppesen Mobile FlightDeckFlight Guide iEFB and WingX Pro7.

You look down at your device to check for the next waypoint and the sunlight coming in hits the display at just the right angle so that all you see is a big yellow dot in the middle of your screen. You can’t see anything, and you start turning and twisting the device, experimenting with different angles to see your display.

In the cockpit, it’s imperative that when you glance at the display you can easily read the information, regardless of sunshine. NuShield’s DayVue antireflective film takes care of the distraction for you without you having to contort your body into uncomfortable positions. This light canceling film works like noise canceling headphones. It blocks reflected glare and provides superior scratch resistance adding to the longevity of your display. Pilots have relied on the NuShield DayVue screen protector film since the first iPad was brought into the cockpit to eliminate glare on their GPS instruments.

In the past wearing polarized sunglasses was prohibitive because the displays turned dark, but with the DayVue film installed, the displays become bright again. The circular polarization of the film allows light to bend so you can see the display from any angle.

The NuShield Advantage

The NuShield DayVue anti-reflective screen protector film offers you the peace of mind that you are able to read your display and protect it against damage along the way. The DayVue film is also available for any other device in your plane that has an LCD or LED display. NuShield supports all of the major GPS manufacturer devices, including Adventure Pilot, Anywhere Map, Aviation Safety, Garmin, Magellan, and Northstar to name a few.

The NuShield DayVue screen protector is a thin film with a slightly tacky backing that installs in minutes and stays in place until you remove it. The film protects the screen and can be cleaned easily. There is an extensive list of manufacturers and devices listed on the website and NuShield will be happy to create new film sizes – as long as you provide the measurements – at no extra charge within 48 hours.
