Bose ProFlight Series 2 ANR Aviation Headset | Active Noise Reduction for Pilots
Overview
The Bose ProFlight Series 2 ANR Aviation Headset model 5 Pin XLR Flex Power with Bluetooth is designed to reduce pilot fatigue during extended flight operations. Eight hours in the left seat exposes pilots to sustained engine noise and radio chatter that can wear on ears and neck. The ProFlight Series 2 uses active noise reduction technology to cut fatigue in half, enabling pilots to stay sharp during long hauls rather than arriving fatigued. The headset costs USD 1099 and is sold through Aviation Hub in the US.
Weight and Comfort Design
At 4.5 ounces, the ProFlight Series 2 is light enough that pilots forget they are wearing it during flight. This minimal weight matters when managing cockpit workload because pilots are not simultaneously fighting discomfort from their headset. The design prioritizes comfort over long duration flights where cumulative pressure and fatigue can degrade pilot performance.
Active Noise Reduction Technology
The headset features active noise reduction that actually works according to manufacturer claims, distinguishing it from less effective competing systems. This technology specifically addresses the dual noise sources of engine noise and radio chatter that accumulate during extended flight time. By cutting fatigue in half, the active noise reduction allows pilots to maintain focus and situational awareness on long haul routes.
Connectivity and Power
The Bose ProFlight Series 2 features 5 Pin XLR connectivity and Flex Power capability to support different aircraft electrical systems. Bluetooth integration enables wireless connectivity options for pilots using compatible avionics and devices. The combination of wired and wireless capability provides flexibility across various cockpit configurations.
Pilot Performance Impact
Extended flight operations create cumulative fatigue from engine noise and radio chatter exposure that degrades pilot alertness and decision making. The ProFlight Series 2 addresses this challenge by reducing noise induced fatigue, keeping pilots sharp during the entire flight rather than experiencing declining performance as flight time accumulates. The headset supports pilot safety and operational effectiveness during long haul missions.
