Lunettes de vol "aveugle" de type 1087 de l'US Army Air Forces / Army Air Corps.
Le set 1087 inclus un cadre de lunettes de vol No.1065 / B-8 avec sangle, écran de couleur bleue monté sur le cadre, et un écran de remplacement également de couleur bleue.
Ce type de lunettes étaient utilisées par les cadets de l'Air Corps afin d'apprendre à voler à l'aveugle. Les vitres de l'avion étaient couvertes d'un film orange. La combinaison de l'écran bleu et du film orange rendait les vitres noires. L'instructeur de vol portait quant à lui une paire de lunette avec écran transparent et pouvait voir au travers des vitres de l'avion.
