How well do mutt muffs work in small planes?

I suspect better than having nothing on.. However I had to ship mine back. I have German Shepherds and they did not work for me.. Trying to keep their ears folded down in to the Muffs became a task. Be sure they are very snug.

No idea but our dogs wear them while at my husband's joinery workshop - the machinery is very loud so must equal (at least) the drone of a small plane!

I own a Cessna 182 and my 78lb Rhodesian Ridgeback keeps them on. Instead of panting and anxious without them, he did fall asleep about 30 minutes into the flight. It may have helped that my wife was in the back seat with him the 2 trips he was on while wearing them.

too small for me to wear, so I can't say for sure, but my dog wears them and seems comfortable in the back seat of the Cessna

I have used them on planes before. They work well especially if you are near the rear of the plane. I usually wait for my ears to adjust to cruising altitude before putting them in.

Yes. I use the Audio Technica for flying because it eliminates the droning of the engine and reduces the level of passenger conversation by a little bit (I'd guess around 25%). When I'm flying, I don't want to completely eliminate all sound - I want to be able to hear announcements, beverage service, etc... However, at work, my cube is in the middle of a noisy call center. To block most of the noise, I purchased the 3M Peltor X-Series Over-the-Head Earmuffs from Amazon. They are inexpensive (under $30) and they work. The headphones are bulky - they are similar to what you'd see someone wearing on a gun range or directing planes on an airport tarmac. But it's the bulk that enables them to work so well - the headphones provide a thick layer of noise-dampening material over your ears. The headphones all but eliminate normal-volume levels in the work place (you may hear a faint murmuring). Loud noises like laughing and sneezing can be heard, but the sound is very muffled. If you placed inexpensive foam earplugs in your ears and then wore these headphones over your ears, you'd probably be in complete silence.

I don't own the 3M Peltor Tactical Sport Hearing Protector but according to the specs, they do not suppress as much as the Howard Leight by Honeywell (Which I did buy & use). For me the Howard Leight muffs are comfortable & work great at the range. I can hear everyone talking and they muffle the sound very well. They are also cheaper!

I have used these many times on airplanes. They block out a significant amount of the noise. I put on soft music at a very low volume and sleep soundly...or just turn on the noise cancellation circuitry and block out the constant whoosh of the aircraft flying through the air. I gave a pair to one of my sons who travels a lot and he now swears by them.

I used them on my flight to Germany and they worked pretty good at noise reduction. After awhile your ears get a little warm because of the padding but other than that they worked great.

I have the same muffs connected to my hardhat, very impressed with how much noise they keep out.I'm in construction, sometimes heavy and I recommend these highly.

These would be fine for use with shotguns due to their low profile design and noise reduction rating (NRR). The NRR is average for muffs of this type. For the best protection, use them in conjunction with foam ear plugs as well.

No absolutely not. I have to use additional hearing protection at the range. I can't imagine that these would be better on the tarmac.

Haven't used them on a flight, but they'd probably be decent though they don't have any type of active noise suppression. While they do come with foam isolation tips, I use Comply isolation tips that seem to provide more privacy - they're another 20 bucks for 3 pair, but worth it IMO.

The head-strap system if very low-profile; it will not interfere external hearing protection of the standard type. (earmuffs)

I bought these for my granddaughter, but I have personally used the headset several times with all sorts of background noise present. Although I have not used them on a plane yet, I have never had any problem hearing the soundtrack over other background noise. They are quite well made and you get good quality sound. They have also taken a lot of abuse in the car without breaking. Make sure the volume is not too loud before putting them on a small child.

Yes, but it depends on the nature and severity of your loss. They have very good fidelity and the ear muffs screen out most external background noise. There are no "tone" controls however, so you get a full spectrum amplification. I have a mid-range (cookie-bight) hearing loss and there were still times when I could not understand all the dialogue, but over all, they helped a great deal.

Yes they will work just fine for that purpose. They wear these on flight lines also. They let you talk and then when a loud noise happens the suppression are automatic then back to normal just as fast. I sold these to industries that had a multitude of loud sounds and they worked fine. Buy with satisfaction.

You should ask the seller, about size diff. I've only seen the medium. I use the medium on a 65 lb Shepard, with approx. 4" tall ears. The muffs look small, but when I fold the dogs ears they fit snug. It took some time to get them adjusted, and use to them, But after that she would sleep with the muffs on. As for as how good they work?? I think their a little over priced. The color is a paint job, not a plastic color. Dogs hearing is a lot better than ours. She can still hear a whisper across a 20 foot room. hoped this helps /Steve

Depends on how loud you need it to be. I fly I c130 aircraft and I can't hear it in the plane, but i can hear it when i fly in the sim.

work great on the range but I normally use an electronic muff for shooting so I can hear others.
