alright, never thought of this before.....Do they use headsets in the CRJ?? If so what kind are they? The telex type? I know for the most part they use David Clark's in the ERJ..I'm dying to retire my ear smashers.....plus I hate messin up the hairdo ya know......
The Telex ANR 500's work great. Smaller than the DC head clamp. Light weight and comfy. They are a bit pricey however.
Many of the folks who use the basic Telex's use earplugs. They say it helps. I've tried it and I'm not an earplug person. Like having a bug stuck in your ear.
I use a Bose and love it. Very peaceful up there now. Several friends I know use DC 13.4's and swear by them for comfort and noise reduction.
I say chose the headset that will fit your pocketbook AND save your hearing. I found the Telex AND 500's did that well. No ear-bugs needed.
What time of headset does Comair have in the cockpit? Not sure it is worth paying lots of $$$ when they come off at 10,000 ft anyway...which raises the natureal question......what is Comair's policy on wearing the headsets?
Yes, the oxygen masks have microphones built into them that work the same as your boom mike. You need put a headset on to listen to the other pilot or put your communications on the speaker.
Since you looked like the only one with CL-65 experience on this thread what do you really recommend....I'm trying to avoid anything big, telex would be fine and of course no headset at all would be great.....what did or do you plan on using?
