No..their mic muffs are not big huge noise canceling because the noise canceling is done electronically by the mic. I'd think Sporty's would have something.
As to the foam inserts, again, it is a personal preference thing. I can tell you that the foam is actually softer than your skin, which means they are extremely comfortable. When I am doing demo's and someone says they can't stand anything in their ears, if I can get them distracted for about 60 seconds, they suddenly realize they cannot feel the ear plugs anymore. We offer different sizes of plugs and you do need to get the right ones. Amazingly, a bigger plug many times is not the answer. If it feels like the plug is falling out of your ear, it's probably too big. You need to have the plug big enough to seal, but not too big.
If nothing else, I'd encourage you to go by the booth and ask them for a set of the ear plugs they give away. They're made from the same foam and GREAT for the air show.
These things are so comfortable, that I'll put my headset on at 9AM and take them off at 5PM, when the show closes, then sleep in the foam earplugs at night because the campground is so noisy. Again, personal preference allows me to do that. They might not be for you.

I don't think they'd work for me. I have a terrible time getting earplugs to stay in my ears and when I do, they hurt.
Lyle, does CA have some sort of mic muf that will work with my David Clark? I'm super busy with meetings and selling planes but will stop by if you are saying they do.

Looks to me like what Clarity Aloft offers is one of those in-the-ear (rather than over the ear) headsets.
I have some doubt that that would make any difference in the wind noise being picked up in the mic as their mic would be basically no different than any other headset mic.
But it does raise something I'm curious about:
Anyone here have any experience using any of those headsets that plug IN your ears? Their supposed advantage is they should be great at keeping cockpit noise out of our ear and be much lighter and less bulky than traditional headsets.
If so, wonder why they're not popular. They're costly, but so are the top end conventional headsets that I see widely used.
