To start: I am a total newbie. I just took my first lesson about 24 hours ago. I was told by my instructor that i am free to use his back up headsets, but he did mention that i would probably want my own soon enough. The backup headset I used started to really hurt in combination with my sunglasses.....so I think I need to find my own headset.
Anyway, as i have scoured the internet, I have noticed a wide range of prices (just missed a lightspeed ANR on ebay last night). I have also noticed that there are a few in-ear headset makers out there like "clarity aloft" (http://www.clarityaloft.com/). This kind of appeals to me since an in-ear headphone is what i use for my ipod etc.
Is there any utility in using a headset like this for a single engine prop like a cessna 172? Or are there other brands/styles that people recommend? Please feel free to post any and all suggestions.....Thanks!
