my instructor told me that there are around 200 different infections you can pick up off a headset. I bought my own the next day.
Ridiculous.
How many different infections can you catch from taking the tube? From eating at any fish&chips, or fastfood outlet? From getting the mail from your mailbox and opening it?
There's no life without risk, and if there were, it would be suffocating.

Jan. It was a joke. Just a little gentle wee wee taking. I do have a set of DC13.4s though.

Ah, ok, sorry. The gentle degrees of tongue in cheek tend to defy detection, over here.

A problem of the internet in general I find, little to do with location. No room for the raised eyebrow or ironic tone of voice.

spend about 3 US Dollars and buy some alcohol wipes, wipe down the plane's headsets prior to your use. also wipe down the controls and throttles and anything else you are likely to touch.

we do this at the airlines and we swap planes all the time. personal headsets are allowed of course and we use them, but if you have 700 bucks to spend, think before you spend it.

and buy that book I told you to get.
