"Aviator sunglasses" would be an appropriate encyclopaedic title for this style of eyewear. I don't believe they are exclusive to Ray-Ban so the choice of title for this article perhaps gives undue weight to one manufacturer, rather than focusing on the style of glasses. I would therefore suggest moving this back to [[Aviator sunglasses]] and not making it sound as if Ray-Ban is the only manufacturer of this style, although obviously they must be mentioned and acknowleded.

Randolph engineering

The line about Randolph engineering is as far as I know correct, but not in the citation give, which also looks unreliable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.224.201.128 (talk) 02:29, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Development date

Would somebody clarify the date on the development here? They can't have been developed by Ray Ban in 1965, for Douglas MacArthur to wade ashore wearing them 20 years previously!!Arejaypee (talk) 20:52, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Kings of your Eyes"

What are the qualia for getting the fact that Aviators are the Kings of your Eyes added to this page? Do studies need to be cited? Is there a particular authority that can be appealed to?

I can understand the revert based on lack of citation, but I'd like to get it added legitamately(sic).

List of wearers

The list of people who wear them is ridiculous (and not least for the reason that Rob Halford isn't there, but Sam Totman is). It's pointless, and should probably be removed. --Grindlyth (talk) 19:22, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. You could pretty much just pull up any gossip/celebrity rag and print out a list of names in it. Chances are, most own at least a pair of Aviators. List a name or two of people who made it famous in the article, and call it at that. 24.23.104.235 (talk) 05:07, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Are all aviator sunglasses made by Ray-Ban? If not, this article may be inappropriately titled.

"Aviator sunglasses" would be an appropriate encyclopaedic title for this style of eyewear. I don't believe they are exclusive to Ray-Ban so the choice of title for this article perhaps gives undue weight to one manufacturer, rather than focusing on the style of glasses. I would therefore suggest moving this back to Aviator sunglasses and not making it sound as if Ray-Ban is the only manufacturer of this style, although obviously they must be mentioned and acknowleded.
