With modern tech being what it is, why do the captain/crew on new airplanes still sound like they’re eating the microphone?
In: Engineering
Their mics are usually pretty good, but they’re also flexy arm mics, so if the captain isn’t smart about where the mic is in relation to their mouth, it’s going to vary substantially in quality. If you’ve ever used a good flexy arm mic, the difference of an inch can change them from crystal clear and perfect, to om nom cookie monster, or even being completely indistinguishable from background noise.
