My point, perhaps badly made at the outset is that if we must a bone dome in the Tutor can we have one designed/optmised for a GA aircraft?

I am flying the Tutor tomorrow and will have to don a helmet which was designed for use in a fast jet with an oxygen mask and I am expected to stick ear plug things in before bone dome to protect hearing. There appear to be better products out in the market place for this sort of work.
Perhaps that is something that will be included in the review that sparked this thread. Although I think that the cost of introduction and maintaining the supply chain would mitigate against it, especially when the principle objection so far seems to be comfort and not increased safety and there is an adequate product in use already.
