Active Noise Reduction Versus Passive Designs in Communication Headsets: Speech Intelligibility and Pilot Performance Effects in an Instrument Flight Simulation

Researchers have long known that general aviation (GA) aircraft exhibit some of the most intense and potentially damaging sound environments to a pilotâ s hearing. Yet, another potentially more ominous result of this noise-intense environment is the masking of the radio communications. Radio commun...
