Yes, I wear my DC-ProX with the Bluetooth streaming from my phone the RealATC replay audio of my just completed leg so I can debrief the First Officer as we briskly walk double time to the next gate. (Except the FO's run faster ahead of me, I think I inspire them to move even faster than me)

Yes, keeps passengers from asking me any stupid questions. My headset saves my hearing out of the cockpit too. Mowing the lawn, gun range, fireworks, sports events...you name and I wear my headset and my sunglasses to it. Heck, when I flew the space shuttle I would wear my space suit on my drive home just in case my car caught fire. Safety first!

He wasn't wearing them on his face, they were up top on his head, ready for instant use, as required.

It's a memory item.

Glaring Light Event: SUNGLASSES - DEPLOY

So you could say he was just better prepared than the rest of us.

You picked her, you walk her and feed her.

I'll cut a sun-glass clown all the slack in the world if he can talk on the radio like a pro. Come on.... let's b!tch about something worthwhile.

"Checkin' in....."
"Three-five-oh"
"10-point-6 for 13"
Start every response with..."Okay...." like some kind of place holder
"Here we go"

and the list goes on and on.......
