Now THAT is brilliant!!!!! Because most of what he tells me (while I'm flying anyway), goes in one ear, bypasses my brain, and out the other. Or at least it seems that way. Thanks Kim, that's brilliant!The cool thing about recording your headset in flight is that you will record your CFI's feedback on your landings, etc.

You're the best! Thank you Kim!!!This is not ideal, but you get the idea:

(My guess is aux out / mic in would be the standard headphone jack size, and for $30 you can't beat that)
Hey no highjacking my night flight thread.might be for the best....
That is a sharp idea Kim, when I buy a camcorder I may just do that, although I think the jack on my Sierra and Zulu sets have a jack that accommodates a direct wire. So you never get any feedback issues? Good to know.

Did you already tell me about this? This sounds interesting-- do you download this or what?Student Pilot Cast
Henning, this isn't even my night flight thread. D'oh. Guess I'm getting tired. Go ahead and hijack away.Hey no highjacking my night flight thread.
Kim- thank you! You've given me great ideas tonight, thank you!
Once she gets the whole flying part worked out....
LOL agreed. I still suck a lot. Especially on my tail dragger lesson last Saturday. I think I'm stretching myself too thin.Once she gets the whole flying part worked out....
Tracey - if you want to record everything, you can:
find a camcorder or a tape recorder (digital) with a "mic in" and then buy a wired mic that sits inside your headset. Turn everything on to record and what you hear (which is everything you say and everything ATC says) is what the mic hears, since it is in your ear.
Otherwise, with liveatc, it is a crap shoot. For example, it took me hours of listening to find my XC and even then they recorded over it with what seemed like 4 channels at once.
The cool thing about recording your headset in flight is that you will record your CFI's feedback on your landings, etc. I used to record all my ground lessons with a handheld voice recorder, but it didn't have an aux mic input.

That's exactly what I do. No feedback, Henning, as the mic and speakers go to different sources. I just use my cell phone's voice recorder and run-of-the-mill wired headphones with the tiny little mic stuck under the ear cup of my Zulus. I tried using the bluetooth to record, but it's not picked up by the phone's recorder, oddly. Haven't yet tried hard wireing the phone to the Zulu; for now the mic under the ear cup works just fine.
This is a great idea! I have a cell phone and I think it has a voice recorder and I have a tiny wire mic for the cell phone! Genius!
