Invisible Vehicle, Visible Pilot

Sometimes an invisible vehicle acts as an Invisibility Cloak. But other times it doesn't. This trope happens when the vehicle itself is invisible, but the driver or pilot and passengers can be seen from outside the vehicle.

Real Life

 * In WWI someone came up with a plane that had lots of parts that were clear. The engine and pilot were still visible, but from a distance, much of the plane being ‘invisible’ was helpful (e.g. avoiding detection from anti aircraft spotters). The idea turned out to be a failure: exposure to the sunlight quickly degraded invisible parts in a fashion that renders them non-transparent and flying through dust tend to make plastic surfaces matte as well.
