David Clark DC JET-X Headset

The David Clark DC JET-X Headset is an innovative solution for commercial pilots. This sleek, on-the-ear (supra-aural) headset stands out for its feather-light weight. At just 127 grams (4.5 ounces), it's a lighter, more stable alternative to other sets. It's ideal for long hours in the cockpit, significantly reducing pilot fatigue.

The primary innovation of the David Clark DC JET-X Headset lies in its excellent ANR (Active Noise Reduction) performance. This is powered by David Clark's advanced ENC technology. It ensures exceptional noise cancellation, minimizing ambient sound. This guarantees clear and crisp communication via its improved M-5B electret microphone. The Digital Signal Processing (DSP) feature further optimizes high-fidelity audio for superior communication clarity. A flexible boom allows for precise microphone placement with a single touch, enhancing pilot interaction.

In-flight comfort is a top priority for David Clark. This aviation headset incorporates innovative Outlast® technology in the head pad. This material absorbs heat, keeping the pilot cool and comfortable. This is crucial even on long flights or in warm cockpits. The soft, synthetic leather supra-aural ear seals, featuring memory foam, conform to the ear's shape for a personalized fit and comfort, reducing heat buildup.

This model is aircraft-powered, receiving energy directly from pin 5 of the XLR connector. This ensures uninterrupted operation. The compact control module includes an on/off function. An improved auto-shutoff feature virtually eliminates accidental battery drain. The David Clark DC JET-X Headset boasts FAA TSO-C139a approval. This guarantees the highest standards of quality and safety for this pilot equipment. David Clark backs these pilot headsets with a 3-year warranty and extraordinary customer service and technical support.
