Had my 26-BKT for a few months after having had a 25 for many years. As others have said it's lightweight, comfortable and well made. ANR is much improved and battery life is considerably better. Only slight issue was that the padding on the top came unstuck and had to superglue it. But i'm very pleased with it.

Definitely worth shopping around. Got mine from Headset Services at Shoreham.

@flyboy: we currently use the 25 in a Citation Sovereign. Whilst i like it I´m interested in your statement that the ANR has improved (I presume over the -25)
Can you describe the difference?

Well as I'm sure you're aware it's when you turn the ANR off that you realise just how much noise it cuts out. Seems much better on the 26.

Also when I started flying the 737-800 my 25 started eating batteries. With the 26 I get a longer battery life on the -800 than I did on other types with my 25 when the battery life was pretty decent.

Can't say I often use the talkthrough function much though
