BoeingDriver99, I just saw this thread. I was on leave all of November and December had me in the sim etc.

I have the Proflight V1. I believe the V2 addressed a lot of the niggles although I must say, they are pretty minor for me.
Yes the case is large - about the same size as the QC35. Putting the headset away in that case is an exercise in frustration. Whoever designed it is clearly a sadist.
I do get audio "cracks" and to remedy that, I disconnect the boom and reconnect it, fixes it for several months.
Sound quality is excellent. You're not quite as disconnected from the Cabin Crew or Passengers so that's good. Either tapping off the ANR is quick or simply removing the ear bud works very well too. The mic works very well.
I have no dramas with the ANR in the top position (flying a Challenger 350). It is very good and doesn't leave you as "remote" as the A20 can.
They are very light on but they do take a little time to work out the best position. They can feel like they are falling off your head. They're not.
I clip the battery pack to the side wall, that takes the weight off the battery pack nicely. (2 x AA).

I would only go back to the Bose A20 if I was operating in an ambient high noise environment, eg, like a turboprop.
Right now, Bose have a deal on the Proflights or A20s, buy one and get a QC thrown in.

I suggest buying the V2 boom and cable replacement for the V1. You will enjoy them a lot more.

Has anyone used the Proflight for GA? My company allows us to buy our own Proflight 2 through a scheme, but nothing else. I also do some GA flying, and would like to use it for this as well if possible, rather than buy another headset. I realise it’s probably not the first choice for GA, just wondered if it was workable?

I am using Bose Pro Flight Ver 2 on Airbus A320 series aircraft. The microphone input level is too low, especially for intercom and PA. Does anyone have the same problem and any solution to this?

No, never had that problem, but sometimes have the problems that people wearing this headset, or other very good ANR headsets, tend to speak in a very low volume which makes it hard to understand for their colleague or ATC.

Same problem here... Any advice on what to do? Problem only exists on intercom, ATC and PA seems to be not affected.

Hello Denti,
I read all your posts about ProFlight and A20, after couple of months, do you still recommend them? How do you find them now? Is ProFlight better than a20 in a 737 environment? I have a20 and think about ordering ProFlight2

Is the mic sensitivity adjustable?

No, it isn’t

I am curious to hear how people find the PF2 if anyone could share. I have a A20 and have used it for 10 years in 737NG, 757, 767, 737MAX and various GA aircrafts and I have found it to be by far the best headset I’ve used although being big and bulky.

I have the Pro Flight series 2 and have the same issue with the loud 'bang' sound when moving the mic.
it seems to be more prominent when having the mic switched to the right side, but it now happens also on the left side.
Headset is unusable like this. The sound is really really loud and harmful.

I have sent it in for a repair but got it back with the problem still temaining.

Are there more people with this issue? Or has anyone found a solution?

I'm going to return mine and ask for an exchange.

Had that issue, removing the microphone arm, cleaning the contacts and putting it back in solved it. Had to redo it every few weeks though.

I did the upgrade to Version 2 a while ago. Cured all the problems. I haven't had an issue since I did that and this was some time ago (years).

Hello,

Did you manage to find any solution. I have this same problem with real loud bang as well when moving mic.

Curious whether Bose accepts the responsibility of defect?

I have the same problem with the Bose ProFlight Series 1 headset. I sent it to them under warranty and explained the problems I experienced, such as when I move the mic, I hear banging continuously, the noise cuts out, sometimes I can't even hear any sound in the headset, etc...

I have spoken to several people who have this headset, and all have complained about the same thing. Bose "fixed" my headset; however, after 2 weeks, it started doing it again. This was last July 2023. Now, my warranty has expired, and I have no idea how to proceed with this as they will never admit that they have a manufacturing defect.
