In this episode of Runway Life, Craig sits down to break down one of the biggest purchases a new flight student will make—their aviation headset. From the legendary Bose A20 and A30, to Lightspeed Zulu, David Clark, and other Quiet Technologies headsets, we cover the real differences in price, comfort, noise reduction, and value so you can make an informed decision before spending hundreds (or thousands) of dollars.
Whether you’re just starting flight training or upgrading your gear, this video will help you understand:
✔️ ANR vs passive noise reduction
✔️ Comfort and fatigue on long flights
✔️ What instructors and airline pilots actually use
✔️ Price vs performance (what you REALLY get for your money)
