I personally never wear hearing protection during the walk around, specifically so I am not limiting one of senses. Hearing a reversing truck has saved me from being squashed.

I hate fighting with the morons at Sydney security who demand that you have hearing protection before they let you onto airside.

Best wishes for the gentleman concerned to make a speedy and full recovery.

Take care out there peoples.
I am with you on the hearing protection for our short time on the ramp. Show the doorman the ear plugs, just don't use them!
Best wishes for the victim.
