Personal headset for GIV-SP

[gmorgan]

Im new on the GIV. Company uses Telex 750. I've heard the GIV has some quirks with noise canceling headsets working properly. What kind of recommendation could you guys make....what's working for you and which ones didn't?

it's been too long since I have been on a g4, but on the g550 and g450 some of us have been using the Bose QC-15. I like them.

We use the Telex 850 ANR headsets in our G400. They seem to work pretty good with no issues powering the ANR. I have a friend that just started using the Bose QC15 with the U Fly Mike in a Lear 40, and they seem to love it! I also have used a Sennheiser HMEC 25-KA (that I had purchased for the EMB-145 at my previous job) in our G400 without any issues.

Ok, but "if" you were in one of our craft, you wouldn't be able to communicate with the other guy unless you shouted. Besides, the hand held mike and speaker is so 80's.

The 80's was my favorite decade. Any headset starts to give me a headache after an hour or so.

QC-15 with the UFly mic. Period. Dot. End of subject.

You must have a bald head.

Clarity Aloft. Far and away the best headset I've ever used. From the loudest warbirds to jets, no batteries, just a few ounces, no head clamping. Even keeps my Iceman hairdo intact.

Agree!

Over the ocean...headsets off...but anywhere else overseas the speaker and mic would madden me!

Isn't headset usage ISBAO standard practice now anyhow?......

Okay. How's this for irony. After a brutal cross-country airline yesterday, including 4 hours in a middle seat on an Airbus and another 2 hours in a gawd-awful 737 (thanks Cactus! And yes, I was a paying customer), I left my whole UFly/QC 15 setup in the seatback pocket. Not sure if it's Sometimer's kicking in or a kharmic b!tchslap, but it's time for a new headset. And I'm buying another QC15/UFly.

Hoping Mike will throw me a discount bone (please Mike, it's Christmas!) but either way, I should have the new setup in time for my next tour.

Now, does anybody know if Ginko Biloba really works???

 

[semperfido]

Wow, bummer. All I ever find in those nasty seat back pockets are used Kleenex

I used to fly the IV with an old school guy like you. He was bald. Great guy.
