Lightspeed Comes Through!

Jay,

Someone really must do their MBA thesis on the Lightspeed Aviation story.
A perfect example of forgetting the details...


Well, as you know, Lightspeed would be long out of business if even a
noticable minority, let alone a majority, would have your kind of problems
- or in fact any kind of problem. So, in one way or another, you must be
special. But of course, you know that ;-)

As I saw written today, "They have plenty of practice fixing them".

If they are a thriving, profitable company, maybe the thesis should be -
Screw the Details.

The bottom line on this issue is ...the bottom line. Wonder how they're
doing in the marketplace?

I picked up (from talking to the Prez at OSH) that I was not alone in my
despair with their products. And I don't think the president of LightSpeed
would be working the booth at Pacific Coast Avionics is they were rolling in
greenbacks.

Wait a minute!!!
Jim Weir shows up at OSH every year, and he makes good products. And he
certainly is generous with his time and advice to anyone who asks. So
why isn't he rolling in money? :-)

As always, a call to Lightspeed was all it took to get a return

Until then, the trusty Flightcoms are back in their position of "honor"...

What is so wonderful about Lightspeed that
Flightcom ANR's literally have to take a back seat...
no matter how much/badly the Lightspeeds screw up?

Haven't had to send either of the BOSE back yet!

The only time my DC's went back was 20 years after I bought them.
Had them overhauled after the plugs developed strain relief breaks.

Edr,

Ah, and how fondly you must remember all those headaches over the two
decades... gd&r

Hey, when you don't fly beyond bladder range, they don't have time to
become uncomfortable.

My FlightComs weren't ANRs. The 5DX is just a "regular" headphone that --
no matter how good -- can't compare to even a bad ANR set.

Do you really want an answer to that? ;-)

On my head, they do. Takes about 2 minutes, max.
