In a previous article, said:
can add your own ear-muffs and even a second earphone, too. But for
those of you who insist on buying a headset that works right out of the
box, I suggest you take a look at Warren Gregorie's AIR-680.

You know, I've only been a pilot for 12 years, but in that time Warren
Gregoire has been advertising these "Cosmetic Reject" headsets
continually. You'd think in 12 years they'd figure out how to make
non-reject headsets. I also note that they don't tell you how much noise
attenuation they have (because it's probably **** poor) and they
promogulate the lie that the real noise reducing headsets (passive and/or
active) mask out the sound of engine noise changes and the stall horn,
when in fact they make engine noise changes and the stall horn more
obvious because you're not deafened by a wall of white noise.

or radical or if the day has a "y" in it.
