The ANR was beginning to act up in both ears, but the left began to make an intermittent squeal - loud enough that it was painful to the ears...I sent it back for repair under warranty last week and just got the loaner - I believe their warranty is three years?? Well atleast it is nice to know my Denali isn't the only one with this problem ;-) Other than that, however, the headset has given me three wonderful years and 500 hrs of comfortable (and stylish LoL) flying...

    >Are any of you using an ANR/ANC headset with your Rotax 912? Brand/model? Opinion? I have Lightspeed 30-3G headsets. Very comfortable and when I press the button, things are very quiet. I can still hear the drone of the 912 UL but soft noise. I have tried Bose headsets but I could not notice any difference in sound quality over the Lightspeed 30-3G, this was in a Cessna Cardinal. The Lightspeed's are a lot cheaper than the Bose. My personal opinion. I think you will like the 30-3G's Eric Atlanta. Classic IV

    I use a LightSPEED 20XLc headset in my Classic 4/Rotax 912/ 2-blade Warp Drive and it is amazing the difference it makes. Communications are a lot easier and the prop beat is greatly attenuated.

    About time somebody had the guts to say that. Thanks Clint. Deke do not archive --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Clint Bazzill" I will buy your whole family dinner if you can demonstrate a spin from a slip in a Kitfox. I stall my airplane in a slip every time I make a cross wind landing. Thirdly, when flying gets boring I will slip, starting at the numbers, turn base, turn final and then land. Doing all this while in a slip. Takes a little concentration. Last, a slip is a slip forward, side, backwards or what ever. Clint
