Default Headsets ?

Prices are set by the market size, since fewer helicopter
sets are sold, they cost more.

Paper clips are cheap only because they are made and sold by
the billions. Aircraft parts cost a lot because they are
very low volume production and they are tracked closely in
case there are service recalls. Aircraft headsets are low
volume items.

Also, some nations have import duties that raise the price.

| Hi Guys..
|
| Okay Im looking into buying a new headset now ive gone
commercial.. Was
| looking at standard sets but have been advised by many
save up a little
| more and get an ANR set (thanks guys
|
| Just a question regarding pricing of these sets. I require
a set for use
| in helicopters but why is it, heli sets are more expensive
than the GA ?
|
| The only difference I can tell is the plug setup! That
being said,
| shouldnt the chopper sets actually be cheaper considering
they only have
| the one NATO plug??
|
| Are there any other differences ??
|
| Thanks guys,
|
|
