Noise Cancelling Headsets?

[illeagle]

I use the QC2 and uflymike in a mid size biz jet and it is great. Carry some extra AAA batteries in the case with you and buy yourself an Ipod and you too will be glad you did. Check Ebay for a better price on the Bose QC2 headest. Makes long days and long flights a lot more enjoyable.

One problem with the mike is this:

If the mike jack backs out of the headset every so slightly... you won't know it and miss radio calls from center.

The way I avoid this is listen to Rush on the ndb radio. If I don't hear Limbaugh ... I know the mike jack has backed out.

Either that or the Democrats have pushed through the unFairness doctrine.

Gut, watch what you say! I didn't think our last trip was that bad.

Also the best $500 aviation investment I have made in years!!

Haven't had one on this fleet yet, yourself included amigo. Just getting ready for some of the usual suspects....

My record is intact....broke another one today....and we were supposed to go to Hawaii tomorrow...:bawling:

Rush is still around? I thought that guy OD'd on pain killers years ago...

Tip for NJI guys.

When crossing water

15.420 mhz*

Sounds real good with the Bose QC2 11a-2p Central.

I use to have a frequency that worked in Kuwait but I lost it.

Seriously though, I believe HF communications is much easier using this headset.

Ya but not to worry, it's TSO'd.

Does uflymike work with QC3? I find it more comfortable than QC2.

No, the QC3 plug is different and the mic adapter won't work with it.

Airplanes are TSO'd but they crash.

Replace the O-Ring on the UFLY MIC adapter if the connection between the headest and the boom mic seems loose.

Common sense? Yes.

Kinda unziping your fly before pizzing. Next thing you know, I may need unifomr pants with a TSO so I can pee without remembering to unzip my fly.

I have a placard on my pants for this very reason.

Wow. I love M and H! They think of EVERTHING!!!

They should take the "pull for quick erect" found on the standby attitude indicator and placard that one on our zipper!

I'm afraid that knowing that a headset can fail in this manor and still choosing to use such junk is what's funny! lol.

Ask anyone who actually uses this product if he considers it "junk." On long days, it's the most comfortable headset I've ever worn.

I've had a TSO'd Telex literally break apart in my hands as I went to put it on. The TSO didn't add anything to the product except its replacement price.
