This is just inaccurate. The Bus is very loud below FL320 and will cause hearing loss. There are a lot of us who protect our hearing and don’t use community headsets. Get a good setup, protect your hearing, and don’t be a gross common user.

Most people that think sharing a headset is gross will probably grab their junk to take a leak and wash their hands after the fact. Everything is gross... It makes you stronger.

It takes until your background check is 100% complete. Our class that took 2-2.5 weeks.

Not to worry! I always lick the mic clean when done with the headset.

I use a Telex 850, and usually ask the other guy if he minds if we keep it until top of climb and when we start our descent. If it's a short flight, like 30-45 min. I'll keep it on for the entire flight. Most guys are ok with that. Radio calls comes in more clear on the 850 than the airplane speakers.

Well you know mins are 3,000?

Free to apply but probably a snowballs chance to be hired with over 500 hours short of the bare mins, and over 1500 hours short of the preferred mins

Still, free to apply
