Remote Audio CAAVMIC Aviation Intercom Interface for Military Aircraft

A MUST if recording aircrew audio!!!

I use this all the time as an aerial combat videographer. Some people throw their mic in the headset and simply hope they get the audio they desire using their earbuds. That's the same thing as using your camera mic to do an interview. You just shouldn't do it. Get the cleanest feed you can from the source (aircraft intercom). Even when you are limited on coms cords in the aircraft you can simply have the aircrew member put his/her headset into this and you can monitor the audio in your earbuds.I've been using the same cable since 2009 from here and still no issues. A few hints: I put my audio levels in auto because of the varying levels coming back in. Also, when you're doing a single person interview, make sure the rest of the coms are muted (ask aircrew to do this) so you don't have radio chatter in the background.
