What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Those two filters have different applications.

Best thing you can do for that is shoot with the light at your back. A polarizer will help if you're shooting at right angles to the sun, and the sky's pretty clear, but if it's actually foggy, nothing will do a whole lot. For aerial photography they generally filter out the blue if penetrating haze is important, but then they're shooting B&W or Color IR.
