Not sure if this is really on topic or not...but...I have an SPH-4 that I
use for flyin the real chopper and also mess around with on the sim.  While
in the real chopper I had to switch out both the mike and the earphones so
my IP could hear external comms (i.e. tower and outside traffic).  Seemed
like he could hear internal (intercom) traffic ok.  Probably won't be an
issue if your just using it for the sim.

I'd love to get another surplus helmet cheap.
