I've recently noticed my tinnitus that came when I was bedding in some new cylinders a few years ago is still being excited by flying even with my Lightspeed Zulu 3's. Having a few weeks off, then flying intensively excited the problem. Thankfully it's not bad and doesn't bother me much but at quiet times I'm conscious of it.
I started a discussion on the RV forum and got some feedback from others. One pilot uses some 3M ear defenders with some 'in ear ' style speakers and a self fitted microphone. He's achieved an impressive noise reduction.
I did some testing using a basic set up of my headset and others, Aerotion supplied a headset for testing and I used my son's Bose which is about 10 years old. The results of which I thought I'd share and welcome any comments as to any improvements there might be.
Posting 'I have this headset and don't have a problem' isn't a comment that is needed however. Further background is under the results.
Regards, Clive
