Usability

The PTT hand microphone, the built-in speaker and an additional headset can be used at the same time!

During phases of limited workload (e.g. while flying enroute or controlling an ATC sector with little traffic), you can enjoy the comfort and freedom of an easy-to-use hand microphone – there is no need to keep your headset on all the time, and even if you leave your desk for a minute you won’t miss any important calls on your active frequency
When workload get’s higher (e.g. when starting your approach or as more and more traffic enters your sector), just put on your headset and toggle the microphone selector switch – immediately, you have both of your hands free for flying or radar scope handling!
