    Are you 135? I’ve never worn the Clarity but I have worn the A20 and the new bose pro flight series, which are in ear and seem to be the same idea as the clarity. The A20 and ProFlight are both great depending on how noisy the airplane you are flying is. For what I do I really like the ProFlight series.

    No ear pressure issues here, they don’t go deep into your ear canal.

    Flew 2 days with the Clarity Aloft and had no issues with ear pressure. By the time I was taking off, I didn’t even feel it anymore
    Yes, I’m 135. I’m of the thought that the Clarity would be better than the Bose because that’s all they do and so they should have it nailed down pretty good. Looking at the overall design of the two, I think I like the Clarity better anyway. I’m going to continue using it for a few more flights until I really decide. Right now, I’m leaning toward a Clarity Aloft Flex and custom ear inserts.

    I’m sure whichever way you decide you can’t go wrong.

    Glad I'm not a regional airline pilot on reserve right now. I can only imagine that they're getting called up to help with all the mess that's going on up there

    No... the planes and helicopters were all flown in for our Veterans Day celebration... it was a pretty elaborate presentation. They did this last week, I'm guessing because some employees are off on Mondays, and a lot of them take Veterans Day off, so they chose a day when most of the workforce was there.
    That is just a guess, though...

    Sporty landing. I'd request free drinks before they made me deplane that ERJ-145 POS into the icy cold. Consequently, I'd request them before getting on it also.

    The B17 that was on display here was flying with tail number 23167 and painted as 'Ye Old Pub'...

    If you want an interesting short read, google it and read the story of 'Ye Old Pub's' last combat mission...
