🔍 Key Concepts

• Types of microphones commonly used in noisy environments • How aircraft headsets are designed for clear communication over engine and wind noise • Which microphone types need external power versus which are more rugged and simple

💭 Think About

• Think about the cockpit and radio environment: which microphone type works best when there is a lot of background noise? • Consider which microphone type is commonly found in aviation headsets used by pilots and air traffic controllers. • Eliminate any microphone types that are too fragile or require complex powering for everyday aviation use.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which microphone type is known for being rugged and reliable in harsh environments like cockpits. • Check which microphone type is often paired with noise‑canceling aviation headsets. • Consider which choices are more outdated or uncommon in modern aviation communications.
