Thumbs up A final question...

Thanks... I truly love flying with the Bose Aviation-X headsets because the ANR is very impressive. IMHO, the sound cancellation is stellar and it actually increases your ability to hear "strange sounds" from your helicopter vs. standard headsets.

Anyway, I've been converted by the crew at PPRuNe... mainly because I just can't come up with an argument for NOT wearing a helmet. The pros simply outweight the cons by a mile.

Any recommendations on ANR capable helmets?

Gentex vs. Alpha vs. Gallet?

Gentex website is http://www.gentex.net/LifeSupport/HS-Home.htm, but I couldn't find the MAIN websites for the Alpha and Gallet. Can anybody post those links and give some advice?
