Yep, never used one in the 60 either. Not sure how the wind is in the 58 but in the 60 it doesn't hit the mic and the mic doesn't pick up the wind noise anyway. It's loud in there but has nothing to do with mic noise. Only people who really needed them were the crew chiefs when they stick their head out the window. Even then if they yell I could still hear them fine. Never had a problem with flying debris in the cockpit either.

 

I was told we used to have a guy who worked EMS for the company I currently work for who was flying around with a face plate with fangs painted on. Imagine picking up a patient with a stupid face plate with fangs. He was told to stop wearing it but he still continued so they fired his ass.

I bet he doesn't wear it much anymore.

I've worn mine when doing deck landings/overwater, or otherwise doors off. Makes it a little easier, not having to yell above the wind that does come in.

 

I go back and forth wearing it as the ALSE that it is, but most of the time it sits in my helmet bag, as it has been for the last 2 months or so.

I saw this on Facebook and was gonna post it... Does anyone else think this is completely unsafe flying and clearly not good for the aircraft?

[SBuzzkill]

I was wondering how you found my picture...

[akscott60]

Probably on your squadrons facebook page. :-P

[SBuzzkill]

Well yeah. But I don't know too many people who follow every unit's page in the Army. There had to be a connection somewhere.

Actually, were you at Drum in the beginning of May, and did you do the PR exercise with Palerider 9?

[SBuzzkill]

I sure did. That was some of the best training I have done at Drum.

I was the PC in the Blackhawk that dropped you guys off/picked you up.

[SBuzzkill]

Small world! It was awesome working with you guys. I remember back then we didn't think we were going to be over here with you.
