$195? Isn't that about an hour in a HELO?


Precisley why he wouldnt want to spend the money on it. Rather spend the
time in the air.


Penny wise, pound foolish.

An hour of flight time, traded for the use of a superior headset for all of
the subsequent hours actually flown? Seems like a good trade to me (and I
believe that was the point of the post to which you replied).

Especially given the cost of the headset itself, seems like an extra $200
investment is a worthwhile add-on (not that it's clear to me why an adapter
should cost so much, but maybe there's something about it that justifies the
expense, other than "where else are you going to go?").
