It's Friday, so an aviation post...

I got to fly with a Bose Headset X the other day...  Amazing!

I have about 800 hours under my Dave Clark H10-76, and was completely 
flabbergasted at how much more comfortable and quieter the Bose was.  I've 
flown with active noise cancellation before, and it felt like there was almost 
a pressure on my eardrums when the ANR was turned on.  Not so with the Bose.  
In addition to that, the Bose was about 1/4 the weight of my current headset, 
and didn't squeeze my head at all.  

The neat thing was that I could hear the guy sitting next to me mumble things 
under his breath, not just the things he was saying to me.

I know the headsets are friggin expensive, but they are incredible when it 
comes to comfort and noise reduction. 

With that all being said, I was on a jet rather than a prop, but thought you 
may be interested.  I'd reccommend that you do your best to at least demo a 
Bose Headset X.  Wow!

I saw them about $100 cheaper than the page below, but I haven't tried shopping 
around.  Just got the webpage for a reference.
