The Zulu 3 is not TSO'd.

Quick test, same as previous but much better cable. I'm still a Bose guy after trying.

Zulu 3
I’ve got the Zulu 3 Lightspeed.
I love it as long as I’m flying left seat in my C182. If I were an F/O, copilot or instructor in a bugsmasher, I’d be ****ed. The boom mike seems to be only compatible with left seat only. My wife has a cheaper model Lightspeed and the boom flips over for both seat use. KMOUT |

The boom microphone on the Lightspeed 3 is set up for the left ear only, meaning that it doesn't rotate to enable use if the headset is reversed with the mic on the right side.
This really doesn't matter, regardless of which seat you're in, unless you're wearing one earcup off the ear. In a light airplane, it won't really make any difference. If you're in the right seat instructing, you can still do that just fine with the mic on the left side. "Screwed" might be a bit over the top. Given that a TSO headset is a requirement for most operators, the positioning of the boom mic won't the limiting factor. There are some who might see a headset of that size as a detriment or might make fun of it, in an airline cockpit, but my feeling is that if it's comfortable, who cares what others think? In the case of the lightspeed, the issue is chiefly the legality of a non-TSO headset. If you're working for an employer that allows it, or if you're flying privately, have a ball; wear what works for you. |
