Q: Would this headset work with low impedance military aircraft. Specifically the KC-135. Looking for a david clark with the flexible boom mic without the annoying battery pack of active noise reduction.

A: No, this will not work with the KC-135.  Instead, I would suggest the David Clark H10-76 headset.

Q: How secure is the detachable cord? Does it come loose easily?

A: The cord will attached securely and does not come undone easily on its own. 

Q: Does it come with headset bag?

A: No, the headset bags are sold separately. 

Q: Hello Is there a PTT cable for the dual pug. To use it to talk to the flight deck from the ground ??

A: Yes, you can find all of our push-to-talk buttons here.

Q: I HAVE THIS HEADSET LEFT OVER FROM MY FLYING DAYS. I WOULD LIKE TO USE IT ON MY FLIGHT SIMULATOR (FSX), WITH FSXCrew. IS THERE AN ADAPTER TO DO THIS USING EITHER MY EXISTING AUDIO CARD OR USB.

A: Hello, you will need to use the PC Flight Simulator Headset Adapter. 

Q: what is the part number for a extra straight cord set for the H10-60

A: The David Clark 5 Foot Straight Cord with PJ-055 / PJ-068 Plugs is our part number 8349.

Q: I am looking to buy the H10-60 headset. I just want to make sure that the fixed wing cords and plugs are included...correct? If I want to purchase the helicopter cord as well, do I need to purchase other plugs as well? Or are the same plugs used for both fixed wing and helicopter?

A: Yes, this includes the fixed wing cord/plugs.  If you want to use it in a helicopter, you would either need to replace the cable assembly with the Coiled Cord for Helicopters or get the Standard Fixed Wing Headset to Helicopter Adapter.

Q: I'd like to use this headset on casa 212 aircraft,which only has one socket for its plug.i'm not sure which adapter should i use.

A: Hello Basri! Is this a civilian or military Casa 212? With a single plug it sounds like it is military, and in that case you would need a High to Low Impedance Adaptor. If you can find out exactly which type of plug and whether or not the aircraft utilizes high or low impedance, please let us know and we will be more than happy to help you further!

Q: What is the warranty on DC H10-60?

A: All David Clark headsets have a 5-year manufacturer warranty.

Q: Does the H10-60 come with GA plugs or do I have to purchase the cord and plugs separately?

A: Yes, the H10-60 includes the standard fixed wing (dual) plugs shown here.

Q: Whith wish cord coms the H10-60???

A: This headset has the portable dual-plug connection for fixed wing aircraft.

Q: H10-60 has a flex/wire boom and H10-13.4, has all flex boom what is the Best way and Is there any special benefits by having flex/wire boom

A: There really is no best way, it is a matter of personal preference. The flex booms can be adjusted in any desired way. The flex/wire booms are a little less adjustable on the flex part itself, however the articulating wire part of the boom can be locked into place so that the mic is always a certain distance from your mouth.

Q: H10-60 has a Electret Mic and H10-30 has a Dynamic mic what is the difference between these two and what is the Best one

A: Electret microphones are by far the most popular for aviation use. They are smaller and lighter than other microphone elements and work by placing a charged, flexible diaphragm a given distance from a fixed plate. Sound waves created by speaking into the microphone cause the diaphragm to vibrate, changing the distance between the diaphragm and the plate. Those changes are translated into electrical signals and transmitted.

With Dynamic microphones, a coil of wire is connected to the diaphragm, which is in a strong magnetic field. Sound waves moving the diaphragm and coil generate an electrical signal that varies in voltage with the amplitude and frequency of the sound waves. Because dynamic mics use a magnetic field, they are susceptible to electromagnetic interference, which can garble transmissions. Dynamic mics for aviation use are carefully shielded to minimize the chances of such interference.

Q: My son is in the aviation program at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va. He is will begin flying in a couple of weeks. I am looking at the David Clark H10-60 for him. I do not want to buy him a cheap headset and then have to buy a more expensive one later. Do you have any other suggestions or is this a good intermediate to start with? Thank you for your help. Greg

A: To be honest, unless your son is planning on going back and forth between flying fixed wing and helicopters (this headset has a dome jack to allow the plugs to be swapped out for both), we would recommend going with the David Clark H10-13.4 as it's the best passive headsets that we carry in this price range. It's more lightweight and will probably be more comfortable during flight training.

Q: so the model H10-60 headset is for fixed wings

A: The H10-60 has the ability to change the cords so that it can be used in both fixed wing and helicopters.

Q: What is the weight of the H10-60 headset.

A: The H10-60 weighs around 21 ounces with the cord.

Q: Does the H10-60 have the stereo capabilities of the H10-13S? Thanks.

A: No it does not.

Q: Is the H10-60 equippped for cell phone use or is an adapter needed?

A: The H10-60 does not come with a cell phone interface.

Q: what makes these different from the 13.4 David Clark models?

A: The H10-60 has the ability to change the cords so that it can be used in both fixed wing and helicopters. In addition, the H10-60 is about six ounces heavier than the H10-13.4, has the flex/wire boom instead of the all flex boom found on the H10-13.4, has about 2 dB of extra passive noise cancellation, and has dual volume controls

Q: What cords or adapters are required to make this headset fully functional for use in a helicopter?

A: If you already own this headset and want to use it in a helicopter you would need the fixed wing to helicopter adapter. If you don't already own this headset, you can get the helicopter model here: David Clark H10-60H Headset.

Q: does the headset (H10-60) come with the mic cover, as pictured?

A: Yes, it does include the mic muff.

Q: I fly in New Zealand, is there any reason why this headset would not work in NZ aircraft?

A: None at all - it should work perfectly. The plugs (PJ-055 and PJ-068) should be standard worldwide.

Q: What is the difference between model H10-60 and H10-80 and what are the prices.

A: The H10-80 was discontinued by David Clark over 10 years ago and is no longer available. We no longer have the specifications on the H10-80 to be able to tell you exactly what the differences are.

Q: Does the 10-60 headset you sell come with a cord (coil or straight) and dual plug?

A: The fixed wing model (this product) includes a straight cord with the dual plugs. We also sell the helicopter version (with a single plug) in either straight or coiled cord.

Q: Does this headset come with a helicopter chord?

A: No it does not. There is a helicopter version of this model (https://www.mypilotstore.com/mypilotstore/sep/639) and also a GA to Helicopter adapter (https://www.mypilotstore.com/mypilotstore/sep/1192)

Q: Is the dome jack easy? Or do you have to do like 10 steps and have a week to figure it out? And what are the measurements?

A: The dome jack is fairly simple to work. You shouldn't really come across any issues with it.

Q: What are Dome jack ?????? Does this mean that you can plug in different cords into the headset itself?????

A: It can be used in either fixed-wing aircraft or rotorcraft by simply changing the detachable cords.
