Dont you have any noise controls in the USA.? Here in theEurope we have to go to great lengths to REDUCE the noise from our a/c. Every engine/aircraft/propeller combination has to be measured according to laid down criteria and if you are too noisy, you don`t fly. Unfortunately it often takes only a complaint from one person to start the local authorities on the trail to closing a flying strip down. At one time all microlight flyers were roundly hated by nearly everyone. They complained of lawnmower engines in the sky droning around spoiling their afternoon nap in the garden. The enforcement of the noise regulations plus increasing speeds plus the move towards 4 stroke engines has helped a lot.

I've used the Series 2 and the X Bose in aircraft, they seem to work better in some cases, as if they were 'tuned' for a certain noise footprint. One client switched back to his old srs.2 from the X because the X worked poorly (Cessna 340). As long as you can try them out, or return in 7 days, etc., you should be fine. Are you using an intercom? That also can be a big factor in ANR ops. Good luck!

They are sold as a user installed kit that fits in most headsets. With my low RPM VW they work super in fact they worked so well that I couldn't hear the engine go to 14,000 RPM when it self districted after the reduction drive failed. They are $160 for the kit. I can't say they will work in a plane with a High RPM engine but they work very well for me. There is only so much any ANR can do, the higher frequencies waves happen faster than thy can be canceled.

Passive and Active Passive is mostly a matter of how much sound insulation the headset has and Active is sound generated by the headset that in effect negates the sound. The Lightspeed cross country is mostly passive, the 3G is mostly active. It is hard to do both because of size constraints. The Bose is mostly active. You will probably have better results with the passive in a 912S, try both.

Steve B do not archive -------------------- FWIW, I've been a huge fan of Lightspeed ANR headsets for years. I had a 20XL, and a 25XL in my RV-8 (Lycoming engine), and they were fantastic. I also used them in other GA type planes, and they were just as good. When the RV-8 was sold (with the 20XL), I traded the 25XL for a 30-3G. The first time I tried the 30-3G it was in my rotary engine powered RV-3. Unfortunately, the frequency and ambient noise level were so different from normal GA planes, that it overwhelmed the active part of the headset. What I got was popping and crackling, which was worse than turning them off. Back they went to Lightspeed, and they "repaired" them. When I got them back, they worked fine for a few flights, then started popping again. Once again, Lightspeed worked on them, and said there was nothing wrong. The only way they could make them reproduce my problem was if they turned up their test rig to full volume. In other words, they said my engine was just too loud. They did install the old, larger ear seals, and that did help. Around that time, I also took the unmuffled turbo off the engine, and replaced it with a muffler. That seems to have lowered the noise level to the point where the 30-3G headsets behaved fairly well, with only an occasional pop. Now for the part anyone here might care about- I took these same headsets to MS to use while flying back the 912S powered SS. Unfortunately, the noise from that engine, in such close proximity to the pilots head is just too much for them. They were popping and crackling about 3 times worse than they had done with unmuffled turbo rotary. I finally turned off the active part, because it was doing more harm than good. I still like the Lightspeeds, but realize that they (and likely others) have their limits. If anyone can suggest a good ANR headset that is known to work with a 912S in a pusher design like the Kolb, I'll need a set by about next Summer.

A few days ago, I indicated that if I were rich, I would own the LightSpeed Thirty 3G instead of the QFRXCc, which I currently have. I based that strictly on the product comparison on LightSpeed's website. The Thirty 3G [at $650] shows several db's better active noise reduction than the QFRXCc [at $379]. I was able to actually try the Thirty 3G last Saturday in my FS II. In no way was it nearly as good as my cheaper set. My friend, Chuck Reinert would like to sell his barely used Thirty 3G for $400.

A tractor engined plane makes noise in the front and you yak in the back....easy to separate. It has a little problem with a pusher since the noise is on the same side you are. Maybe I'm way off on this but I'll find out next summer when I try mine out. This year I used a regular set of sporting goods store ear defenders since there was nobody to talk to. A real pleasure.
