Thinking of downsizing from the Bose X to QC 15s. Has anyone used the 15s for aviation use?
FYI: The QC15 has been replaced with the QC25 which is not compatible with the uFlyMike adapter. There are still plenty of QC15s out there to buy if you want to, but if you don't have an imminent need you might consider waiting for the QC25 and a new uFlyMike. The advantage as I see it is that the QC25 now plays audio even when the batteries are dead, which is a big deal as a pilot -- the QC15 simply turns off when the batteries die.
I would guess this will get rid of the need for an extra earbud for commercial pilots to use the QC15+uFlyMike.

I don't know for sure, but Bose always threatened that there'd be no warranty work on a modified qc15.
Eh, Bose doesn't do repair work period on the QC. If you are within Warranty, they send you another QC (minus the case etc...). If you're out of warranty, they'll make you a discounted offer on a replacement.I don't know for sure, but Bose always threatened that there'd be no warranty work on a modified qc15.
