Some people have been asking about headsets. Some schools provide headsets with the aircraft (we do) though some suggest or even insist you provide your own. I am not sure of the hygiene implications of sharing headsets but I suppose they have a point, especially if you have children that seem to get headlice as often as mine do.

I have found a very good and opinionated article about good headsets which is below. I like it as it actually expresses what they like and don't like - enjoy!

Time to upgrade to an active noise cancelling headsite soon then!
