Do you know which WN hubs he has stores in?
BWI and a small one in PHX, and there were several others I can't recall. His number is on the website at the top, email address also. He mentioned they were usually downstairs near a crew room, so I don't know if you could even get down there without that airport's SIDA badge or an escort

I wish the stores were in the public area. I'm in a couple of those places all the time.

I doubt they will adjust in the cockpit, pretty sure the windows filter the wavelengths required (I think that is what triggers the transition). I've tried them in bubble canopies with little to no change.

Can you get Rx lenses for the Serengeti Velocity with he driver's gradient? I currently have Rx sunglasses with a big curve so I'm aware of the issues of curved Rx sunglasses (not an issue for me).

The Crew Outfitters in DTW at least stocks Serengeti's. I assume the others might too

Absolutely.

My Ray-Ban Wayfarers have been excellent. Dark enough for the brightest day, easy enough to see the displays. They were expensive, but you can't put a price on looking cool. My Ray-Ban Aviators with the mirrored glasses haven't fared as well.

Go to any Sunglass Hut in your local mall or shopping center. They have lots of serengetis to choose from.

How do you get access to the MCO crew lounge?

Try airplanethings.com,

I used them twice. They will also accommodate your prescription. I've used them twice and no complaints. The prices are reasonable.
