You can attach a HGU Visor (Or nick one from Eharding...) and you have a great solution for less than £300.
True - I had forgotten about the Peltor option!
(another point to note that HGU55 spares are cheap and easily available, to the extent that you can be more than happy to donate a visor or two to your mates - although the late night eBay impulse buy of a rare anti-laser HGU55 visor probably wasn't entirely wise...it does make the whole world turn orange-pink)
I'm sure the last time I flew with FlyingCircusAce he kept shouting things like "400 m, flat (maximum speed) into crest into kink left severity 4" though....probably the Peltor rally heritage...
