[QUOTE="Andre Levite, post: 83757, member: 10850"] Here is the pertinent section of the FAA regulation: [SIZE=5]"§107.31 Visual line of sight aircraft operation. (a) With vision that is [B]unaided by any device other than corrective lenses,[/B] the remote pilot in command, the visual observer (if one is used), and the person manipulating the flight control of the small unmanned aircraft system must be able to see the unmanned aircraft throughout the entire flight..."[/SIZE] It's pretty clear reading the above that you can [I]only[/I] wear eyeglasses (or contact lenses) to help you see the drone. That would exclude FPV goggles, binoculars and anything else between your eyes and the aircraft. It also says that a second observer doesn't excuse the pilot from his VLOS obligation. It's a rule ignored by hobbyists who wear DJI Goggles -- but it's a rule nontheless. [/QUOTE]
