Hand mikes are awful! Especially when there's one for VHF, one for UHF ground radio, plus two telephone handsets... strip writing and moving fits in there somewhere but it's a nightmare! So not exactly ergonomically graceful.
Think we had the Airlite 62 or something appropriately vintage and weighty at CATC - not found anything better in ergonomic terms yet, but it was a bit heavy...
