Although originally designed for airline passengers, EarPlanes are even more valuable for passengers and pilots of nonpressurized general aviation aircraft. We've tested them in "slam-dunk" 3,000-FPM descents and found them remarkably effective in reducing the discomfort of ear blocks. For young children who have difficulty clearing their ears during descent, they're worth their weight in gold. For pilots, they work fine when used inside passive or ANR headsets (although you'll have to turn up the com volume to compensate for the additional noise attenuation provided by the EarPlanes).

While most people understand the need for personal hearing protection many neglect their pets. If you take your dog flying or in noisy environments try out the MuttMuff Dog Hearing Protectors.
