Headsets in commercial aircraft - need for approval?
Hi,
Our airline (EU-airline) will no longer allow us to use private headsets. A shame for us, since our aircraft are poorly equipped!
The reason for this action is supposedly documentation, that for every model of a headset you will need a specific approval to each aircraft for installation.
From a legal/certification perspective, is this also a requirement for headsets that don't need installation? ie. non-ANR headsets og headsets with their own power supply. All headsets to be used are TSO'd.
Would appreciate hints on where I could look up this documentation. Any other airlines out there also banning private headsets?
regards
