My favorite right now is the non-ANR Clarity Aloft in-ear set.
Feather light, no head pressure, motor noise just a light hum. Much
more comfortable than my LS 3Gs and, in my perception, quieter. Also,
ANR sets are really poor when the batteries die. Replacement isn't a
big deal but sometimes in IMC things get really busy.


You too?! I bought one after Jim's forum and I really like it. I was
really ****ed at Beyer when I tried their headset with a rather round
earpiece and said "can't wear earring with this one" and he rolled his
eyes at me. NOT a good way to attract business! The Clarity Aloft is
not only light, but you can easily wear it with earrings :-}. The only
downside is the in the ear part which means you really need some other
headset type for visitors, etc. We bought one Clarity Aloft, but when
they figured out we both fly and needed different size ear pieces they
threw in 5 sets of the small ones for me and left the original 6 sets
for Ron. I like it!

You just bought the Bose X, what, in '04 and now you have already moved on?

You can send me you unused Bose to me, and I will give them a good home!

Never bought a Bose, sorry. We do have a pair of Lightspeeds, one of
which is now in the back seat.

Ahh, there I go again, relying on my memory, or lack there of. It was the
Lightspeeds that I remember you, or I guess Ron coming back with, while you
were showing me and a couple of other people your newly finished redone
Navion. Nice.

Everything still doing well on the plane? Any new toys or additions?

Thank goodness the only new addition is the headset. We did have to fly
to Lancaster, PA today to pick up the plane after leaving her there last
Sunday on our way back from the Boston area. The plane was flying
great, but the weather was less than desirable (T-storms) so, a week
long rental car and we are whole again. One of the GREAT things about
my job is my boss sort of understood when I said I might bug out of work
at any moment to get my plane (didn't happen as Saturday turned out to
be the best time) and didn't mind. Of course his boss (a former
Harrier, F-4, etc. pilot) when he found out I had left the plane said
"take whatever time you need to go get it". It is sort of wonderful
knowing you have a job that you really could call in on Monday morning
and say "I hit bad weather" and they would say "well, good thing you
stopped".
