Don't buy the headet!
Those £100 ones simply aren't worth it, they're really uncomfortable and part of the course will have you flying at least 3 hours in one day, a long time with a crappy headset.
I bought a David Clarke 10 years ago, still going strong, and as comfortable as ever after over 2000 hours of flying, and nicely in the middle price band. I don't see any reason to go all out buying a Bose or whatever, DC are very good.
As don't overfil said Tayside operate two different aircraft types which use completely different headsets, one will not be compatible with the other, so make sure you've chosen your aircraft before you choose your headset unless you're happy to buy two. Or just buy a standard two pin headset, and borrow the Tayside single pins when you fly them. The adapters just don't work.
