First, you're welcome! We've not found a good solution for those that have issue with the mic on the left. We DO have a longer mic, though, about two inches longer. I always kept both ears covered in the left seat. When the boss said something, I figured it was likely about his investment strategy or one of his ex-wives... I just smiled and nodded. Figured if it was important, he would call back... :)

Hello again Mike,

About your mic.... :)

I would like to speak to you about the longer mic.
When is an ok time to call you with a quick question?

Thanks,
Z.
 
Why spend your own money on something the company provides?
...I assume your airlines equip the flight decks with headsets.

I know of no company that supplies a headset as comfortable and quiet as the QC+UFM combo.

That's kinda like saying that because your company supplies unlimited peanuts, why spend your own money on a sandwich?

Because I actually want to be able to HEAR when I'm 70.

Because I miss WAY fewer radio calls with the Bose/UFM than I did with the POS Telex 750 the company put in the airplanes.

Because I like to be able to shut out the screaming babies and moronic amateur travelers when I ride the airlines.

Because it was the best $500 I ever spent in this business.

That's just a few reasons why. And CA's analogy about peanuts is spot on.

Well said Gut!
 
Any time. My mobile is 719-332-9670 We're in MST.

I sent you a PM which should suffice, I didn't want to intruder on your weekend time with the family or whatever and call at the wrong time.
Thanks for making yourself so easy to contact....
Z.
 
They turned around my repair request in less than a week. Can't wait until my next trip to try it out.
 
For the TSO to be in effect you have to wear the ear buds underneath the headset correct?

First. There is no requirement that equipment not permanently affixed to the airplane be TSO'd. I carry a copy of the ruling from their boss for any Fed that doesn't understand this.
The earbud is to maintain audio in the event of battery failure. If they want to push this, the same thing can be easily accomplished by turning the speaker above the Fed's head to full blast and opening all the channels.

That may be pretty annoying if you don't have noise cancellation.......;)

Got my repaired Uflymike back and its working like new. Thanks, Mike!
 
LOL~ Just got an email few minutes ago, that your product was shipped today, looking forward to using them!
Hey while I got you; I have a pair of BOSE q115's coming already too but I was curious about these:

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7097117&sku=A338-1060

I'm walking down to their store in a few minutes and going to scope them out, at first glance they almost look like a knock off on the BOSE.
(I already understand from your web page most others wont work.....)

Just wondering thats all, would be nice to find a less $ headset than the BOSE.

2 Bose headsets zaahalie? MUST be NICE! Miss ya man. Maybe I'll see ya when we start CHS. :beer:

We have the piece of sh%^&t 750's on our 320's. A few years ago I bought the 850. No battery required and it is pretty quiet compared to the 750.

I am considering though the UFM setup some time this year...
 
Its the best headset/mike combo on the market today...
 
Hey Mike, quick question:

I've had my UFM for almost four years now. Love the thing, but the microphone sure lets in a ton of wind noise compared to others. (The switch is on low, but it's still too loud, so I have to keep turning the airplane's hot mike on and off when I want to talk.)

Is it possible for you to modify it to make it quieter, and if so, what might that cost me (in dollars and turnaround time)?

Thanks!
 
Love my Ufly fly mike and my qc15's... although I have an small issue with the qc 15's.... when using reverse thrust the ANR kicks off for less than a second and it sounds like an explosion..... anyone else ever notice this??

Sometimes this happens to me, also when going over a runway bump on takeoff. Have figured out, only when battery is very low so replace my battery immediately after this happens.
 
CA1900,

You can turn the mic gain down using supplied tool. The adjustment is the small hole on the side of UflyMike. That should quiet down the sidetone and transmission volume.
