A best bet for pilots! 

While binoculars aren't something that we normally get into, we wanted to offer something that would fit the typical pilots' mission which we defined as a set of binoculars that would work great in the airplane for spotting objects on the terrain below as well as a good set of optics that could be used at airshows or fly-ins.

So, we spoke with a bunch of people who know a lot more about binoculars and optics than we did and found an ideal set of binoculars particularly well suited to you.  We are pleased to offer this Bushnell 7x50 PermaFocus Wide-Angle Binocular.

What makes it an ideal choice for pilots?  First, it has high quality Bushnell optics to give you an bright, crisp images.  The PermaFocus technology, which is constantly focusing for you, is a perfect fit for vibrations and movements found in an aircraft.   It has a super-wide field of view so when you're flying, you and your passengers will be able to more easily locate and track objects on the landscape below.  The wide field of view is also very helpful for airshow viewing.  And, the 20mm of eye relief will accommodate most eyeglass and sunglass wearers.
