Good Evenng Mystic Cobra,
Well, I am currently 87 years old. I suppose as I get older my hearing will suffer, but I have been flying well over seventy of those years. I do not thnk flying has hurt my ears any more than just old age has made my ears less efficient.
I DO use noise cancelling headsets because they really are marvelous gadgets, but the Bonanza is/was a LOT quieter than the Cessnas and Pipers of the fifties. Beech used an almost eight foot prop turning at a maximum of 2050 RPM cruise power to keep things quiet. Really worked great!
Modern headsets and modern electronics ARE marvelous. <G>
Happy Skies,
Old Bob
