Which is cheaper? A $1000 pair of headsets or the multi hundred pounds it
will take to make aircraft quieter in the cockpit. And before you answer
we aren't just talking insullation here we are talking a bigger engine to
carry the weight of the insullation, more fuel and fuel burn because of
the bigger engine and probably 100 other things I haven't even thought of.

You might not have to add weight. The auto industry seems to have avoided
it.


You are right that there are probably some folks out there that don't fly
for that reason. But motorcycles are loud, jetskis are loud, ski and bass
boats are loud. Being loud isn't the problem. The same goes for vibration.


Perhaps not to you, but there are a lot of people out there that can easily
afford any small plane they choose. But they don't fly airplanes, ride jet
skis, motorcycles or bass boats. Most do however seem to drive a Lexus, or
something a whole lot like one.
