What's the difference between High Performance and High Visibility?
What's the difference between High Performance and High Visibility?
- Both shading levels block 99.9% of UV radiation and significantly reduce cockpit heat.
- High Performance is the darker option with a mirrored exterior finish. It delivers maximum heat and glare reduction - ideal for hot climates, long flights, and aircraft parked on sun-exposed ramps. Most pilots flying in the southern US, the Caribbean, or similar environments choose High Performance.
- High Visibility is a lighter tint that reduces heat and glare while maintaining a brighter cockpit feel. It's popular with pilots who want sun protection without significantly changing the look of the cabin, or who fly in variable conditions where they want maximum outward visibility.
- Not sure which is right for you? Many pilots start with High Performance for cockpit windows (where glare is most distracting) and High Visibility for cabin windows.
How are Jet Shades installed?
How are Jet Shades installed?
- Jet Shades are removable - they clip or press into the window recess without touching or adhering to the glass. No tools, adhesives, suction cups, or modifications to the aircraft are needed. No STC is required.
- First-time installation is a one-time fitting process. Depending on your aircraft, this can range from under 30 minutes (for models where the shades are near plug-and-play) to 1–2 hours for aircraft where light trimming is needed to match your specific airframe. Every aircraft is slightly different, even within the same model, so this initial fitting step ensures a precise fit.
