This brings me to the ProFlight Series 2 headset.
This is important because we no longer communicate over an ICS system, but just speak to each other in normal voices while moving a headset or earpiece out of the way. Fast forward a couple of years now and I have changed airframes to something more "civilianized".this translates into a much quieter flight deck. The A20 was lighter, more comfortable (especially on grueling 24-hour flight duty periods), and you really couldn't beat the noise cancelling feature inside of the uninsulated military flight deck. My first Bose headset was the A20.which was truly lightyears ahead of my military-issued David Clark. Lightweight, Great Design/Features, Bose Quality I have been flying with Bose aviation headsets for just over the last 5 years. Thank you, Bose, for redesigning it so that it's useful and practical! I highly recommend this headset for those that fly noisy jets.
Even after a 6+ hour day, I don't really feel it. And, as stated above, it's a very comfortable headset. I'm still working with getting the ear pieces to fit just right, but so far so good. I was previously using the David Clark DCProX, and while a nice headset, the on-ear design did get old after a long day and it didn't block out as much noise. I tried the A20s and they were too big and bulky for the Boeing's cockpit. I fly the 737-800 and it's a perfect headset for this jet. It's extremely lightweight and comfortable. I don't feel the pressure or the hot spots anymore. I've flown 3 days and about 15 hours with it so far. I finally decided to give the Series 2 a go. After a 3-hour flight, it gave me a massive headache. I used it for one trip and had to send it back. Much Improved Over The Original I bought the original ProFlight when it first came out in 2018 and absolutely hated it. *Adapters are available from Bose to convert a 6-pin connector to either a dual G/A plug or a U174 for additional connection flexibility. When disconnected, the flexible power feature switches the headset seamlessly from aircraft power to battery power so users experience no interruption when the headset is plugged into or unplugged from the aircraft.* When disconnected, the flexible power feature lets the headset switch seamlessly from aircraft power to battery power, so users experience no interruption when the headset is plugged into or unplugged from a source of power.Ħ-pin connector wired to the aircraft (LEMO): With this option, the headset is connected to the aircraft via a 6-pin connector and is powered directly from the aircraft. XLR 5 pin: Often called the Airbus plug, this configuration is a mono connection to the aircraft and, depending on the installation, may be powered by the aircraft. This configuration is the most common version purchased by pilots. Two AA alkaline batteries provide a minimum of 45 hours of operation while flying.
Designed for use in both civilian and military aircraft, the ProFlight Series 2 offers most common plug configurations:ĭual G/A plug (PJ 068 and 1/4-inch stereo): With this option, the headset is connected to the aircraft’s intercom via a dual plug and is not powered by the aircraft. Each connector configuration is available with Bluetooth, and non-Bluetooth variants in dual-plug and 5-pin configurations. Customers have their choice of connector configurations with each module. Customers can configure their ProFlight Series 2 Aviation Headsets in many ways.
