The GloveLight gives a whole new meaning to having a flashlight on hand. A couple iPhone apps also make your chart-reader double as a cockpit and preflight light.
Hey buddy, got a light?
Paul Smith was boring through the dark of night in a Cessna 182, heading in to Shelton, Wash. He kept fumbling with his red-lensed flashlight to read his charts or write something on his kneeboard and, in that great entrepreneurial spirit, thought, There has to be a better way.
Key Takeaways:
- The GloveLight, a hands-free LED glove for pilots, significantly improved from its initial version (Mark I) to the Mark II, offering enhanced comfort and practical use for cockpit tasks.
- The Mark II GloveLight is praised for its ability to illuminate unlit controls and charts, free up hands, and features like waterproofing and a lifetime guarantee.
- Smartphone apps like Aviator Light (screen illumination) and Best Flash Light (camera flash) offer convenient, accessible, and versatile lighting alternatives for pilots during preflight and in the cockpit.
