Pre-takeoff checklist
Folks, the dreaded moment has arrived. My mother-in-law asked me when can I take her up for a flight.
Seriously, though, she is a lovely lady and I am delighted to take her up for a flight. She is wearing hearing aids and I was wondering how comfortable she will be with the DC H10-13.4 and all the chatter through the radio.
Any advice from pilots here who wear hearing aids? Are there any considerations regarding volume levels?
I really want to make this a very enjoyable experience for her, and I worry a bit about hearing aids and headphones.
I am also a bit concerned about mic sensitivity. She's a very softspoken person and I'd have to turn mic sensitivity so low that the ambient noise may keep her mic open all the time.
