I was in the market for an ANR headset and watched many reviews including this. Saying this, thanks for the insightful review! Reasons I went with the DC One X were many positive reviews highlighting the comfort, form factor, sound, and the build quality. So I tried the DC One x and I am very satisfied. I live in Europe, so the DC One X at 1100€ is not cheap, but compared to 1450€ Bose, I am very satisfied. It feels like everyone has either A20/30s or passive headsets over here. So I am now the special snowflake. Though anyone was very interested in my One X and were quite intrigued by the small form factor and the comfort.

I learned how to fly in a Piper Tomahawk. Owned a 172 for a couple years and liked it. Bought a 64 musketeer flew and operated it for a couple of years. This was in the late 70s early 80s. Great airplane It just felt solid when you flew it. Did have to watch the weight. especially since I flew out of St Petersburg Florida. A lot of hot Summer days. Had great room inside. I miss that airplane.

2200 rpm for takeoff is much too low. It really should do at least 2500 static and 2700 at sealevel and 89 mph climb speed. As you cruise at higher altitudes it's ok to run the rpm up to red line by 7 - 8000 ft. Fly the 170 at 6 - 12000 ft.

I don't like bose because the headset is made out of cheap plastic. David Clark used to be made out of metal. They were Chrome polished metal headset I wish that David Clark would go back to Chrome metal headsets. I wish that those would actually make Chrome metal retro style headsets like that but they don't they make old cheap headsets that are plastic. I don't understand why everything is going to cheap fragile plastic now even cars are just becoming garbage. I wish we could go back to the 70s and 80s when cars were actually built better. Unlike this garbage plastic they build today

@@fastbackflying853 Flying VFR from B.C. to Florida at that time of year is a pretty tall order and probably not realistic. Yes, I'd fly down the west coast then across the south. In 1999 my plane's former owners flew her to Oshkosh (three days, CYNJ-KGGW, KGGW-KSTC, KSTC-KOSH). This is much more doable. "White low wing over Fisk give me a wing rock!"

It really was. I was very fortunate with my timing. I planned to arrive about 30 minutes after the airspace opened as they prioritize departures. Everyone who arrived early or on time ended in the hold. By arriving later and then adjusting my speed on the way to the first waypoint I managed to avoid the hold and fit in nicely with the rest of the traffic.
