Don’t be fooled by the vintage look. This is a fully functional and thoroughly modern Lightspeed Zulu 3. I call it the Silvaire Edition, and I made it all myself!
New Pilot headsets are packed with technology that make flying more enjoyable, however in terms of looks, they lack that vintage appeal, us classic airplane owners seek out. Vintage looking headsets like the DC David Clarks, lack the comfort and features of their modern counterparts.
I want modern technology, but I want to to look like it belongs in a 1940's aircraft.
I learned that the Lightspeed Zulu 3 headset uses magnesium earcups, and the gears began to spin. Many many hours later, I present the world's first and only vintage zulu 3, to match my Luscombe.
This is NOT an DIY instructional video, you ruin your headsets, thats on you. Also, Lightspeed Aviation does not offer this as a service. Don't bother the fine folks asking for a Silvaire edition Zulu 3.

These are awesome. Lightspeed really should seel a version of this as a collab with you. These vintage sets would sell out in a limited run in a heart beat. Reach out to them!

Holy smokes. You did a fantastic job. I don’t see a comment from Juan Brown (yet), I suspect he’ll need to order a set (need a pair for the right seat too). 😁

Nice! I thought I was being clever painting my green DC headset brown to match the leather flying helmet it's mounted in, but you've taken it to a whole other level.

Easy my plane is under annual now so I dont get to fly it 😭. In all seriousness, this is leather paint, the same stuff we use to repaint aircraft seats. It has a clear coat on top that further enhances wear resistance.
