All but 227AG are air group property operated by skywest. The QX tails flying under other airline CPAs were sold off, but the remaining AG tails with Alaska paint are not owned or leased by skywest. Feel free to look it up.

Maybe if you weren't wearing ear plugs under that crap telex you could hear the uflymic. I have never had an issue with my mic but the first trip I adjusted it with the other guys help, but I know what you mean hell I stopped to help a pilot air up a tire the other day and he was just gonna wait for a wrecker take it to the tire shop.

So you don't keep track of your time? What if the company messes it up? Won't that effect your pay?
Thanks!

I can't be bothered to track my times. I already spend enough energy thinking about this job when I'm not on the clock...

This is true, I can't wait until they all disappear. Just get a real Bose to fly with and a QC for the commute/pleasure.
No better combo then two Bose aviation headsets plugged in.

The FAA registry says otherwise.

Except it's twice as much and is no better than the QC15/ufly setup.

I would not count on it any time soon. It's the most popular headset that I have seen now. The new mic is even better

Have you been reading what others have been posting?

For what it is worth I've heard controllers hate them too, I don't know if we have any around to confirm, or if they even know why some are quiet.
I had no clue the users could adjust the mic levels, that would fix the issue right there

Telex and ear plugs, what a combo. Haha

I'm not going to say it's a bad headset when it's most likely operator error. The 175 used to bother the heck out of me too... it seems like everyone is a mouth breather in that plane until you adjust the inter phone down. I'm guessing those are the culprits leading to the bad rap.
