Headset compatibility

Craggs,

I used DC H10 13.4's for years whilst training thru PPL/CPL etc they were excellent and are still going 10 years later, only ever replaced the foam mouth-piece mike cover. I now instruct and use DC ANR headsets and wouldn't fly without them they did cost GBP450ish (Ouch ) but are worth their weight in gold if you're a regular flyer doing 4-6 hours a day in SEP spam cans. No ringing ears...!!!

Ref tax/duty etc, don't know much about how it works but I ordered a watch from a US dealer and had to give a cheque to the postman when he delivered it for tax/duty etc.

Someone I know has some Lightspeed (I think that's the correct name) ANR headsets and they work well and are a lot less the the DC's.

Go in to a pilot shop and just try the ANR's on and turn them on/off a few times and see the difference.

Cheers,

CY&B
