Flight School Headset Programs: What Flight Schools Need to Know

Equip Your Flight School with Professional Grade Headsets

KORE Aviation works with flight schools across the country to provide aviation headsets that hold up in real training environments. When you are managing a busy school, headset decisions affect more than comfort. They affect student focus, instructor communication, replacement costs, and how smoothly your fleet runs every day.

That is why more schools look for something between disposable budget gear and expensive premium models. They want headsets that students actually like using, but that also make sense for the school to maintain over time. KORE Aviation gives schools that middle ground with bulk pricing, dependable support, and headset options built for repeated use.

What KORE Aviation Offers Flight Schools

Running a flight school means managing dozens of headsets across students, loaners, and rental aircraft. Cheap headsets break. Expensive headsets disappear. KORE gives you the middle ground that actually works:

  • Wholesale partnership: Best for flight schools, retailers, and distributors that want to buy KORE Aviation products in bulk and resell directly. Partners can get up to 45 percent off on bulk orders, plus a free headset display for in store showcasing.
  • Dropship partnership: Best for online retailers and e-commerce stores that want to list KORE Aviation products without holding inventory. KORE Aviation handles fulfillment and shipping, while partners earn commission on each sale.
  • Affiliate partnership: Best for flight instructors, content creators, and aviation influencers who want to recommend KORE Aviation products through a custom link or discount code. Partners can share exclusive student discounts and earn commission from qualified referrals.

School Partnership Highlights

Rainier Flight Service

Rainer Flight Service operates five locations and trains up to 1,200 clients per week, so their rental and demo headsets need to handle constant use. In that kind of environment, durability is not optional. Headsets are used by different pilots every day, moved between aircraft, and expected to perform without slowing down the training schedule.

According to Daniel Thomson Jr., Office Manager at Rainier Flight Service, the KORE Aviation KA-1 has become one of the most durable and cost effective headset options they have tested. Instead of replacing full headset units every few months due to wear and tear, Rainier now relies mostly on KORE Aviation refresh kits, which helps reduce long term equipment costs while keeping their headset fleet in service.

"KORE Aviation KA-1 has proven to be one of the most durable and cost effective options we have tested. Previously, we were replacing headsets every few months due to wear and tear, but with the KA-1, we now rarely need to replace the entire unit and can use the refresh kits provided by KORE Aviation, which significantly reduces our long term costs. Instructors and clients alike praise the excellent noise canceling microphone, clearer communication, strong passive noise reduction, and improved comfort on longer flights. For flight schools and individual pilots seeking reliable performance, outstanding value, and real world durability, the KORE KA-1 is an outstanding investment"

— Daniel, Office Manager Rainier Flight Service

 

Part Time Pilot

Nick, who runs Part Time Pilot ground school, helps student pilots prepare for training and understand the fundamentals before they ever get in the cockpit. He often hears the same question about finding a good headset without overspending.

Community Highlights: Meet Nick Smith of Part Time Pilot – SDVoyager – San  Diego

"My students ask where they can find a quality headset without breaking the bank. Without a thought my answer is KORE headsets, every time. I have had a pair of KA-1 for 10 years and they still work great!"

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the minimum order for bulk aviation headset pricing?

There's no large minimum order. Bulk discounts on the KA-1 start at just 2 units (15% off), with savings increasing to 20% at 3 units and 25% at 4 or more. For larger fleet orders (10+ units), contact us directly for custom pricing.

2. What warranty do flight school headsets come with?

The KA-1 includes a 5-year warranty. The longest in its price class. The P1 comes with a 1-year warranty. Warranty claims are handled directly through our U.S.-based support team with fast turnaround.

3. Can we get custom branding or co-branded headsets for our school?

We work with partner schools on co-marketing opportunities. Reach out to our partnerships team to discuss what's possible for your school.

4. Which headset is better for a loaner fleet vs. student-owned use?

For loaner fleets where headsets see heavy daily use, the KA-1 is the better investment . The 5-year warranty and gel seals justify the price over time. For high-volume loaner racks where cost is the primary concern, the P1 keeps your per-unit cost under $125.

5. Do you ship directly to the flight school?

Yes. All orders ship directly to your school's address. We can also set up recurring orders if you onboard students in cohorts and need headsets on a regular schedule.

Headset Guide

Your headset may come with either a single or dual volume control located on one or both ear domes. Rotate the knob to adjust the volume to a comfortable level.
If your headset includes a mono/stereo switch located in the Y-block on the main headset cable, select the setting that matches your equipment. Use the stereo position for stereo audio sources. For all other applications, use the mono position. Refer to your aircraft radio or general aviation intercom manual for guidance on the correct setting.
Your headset is equipped with either a full-flex or wire boom that can be bent and positioned for accurate microphone placement. Adjust the boom so the microphone sits at the corner of your mouth, about ⅛ inch from your lips. Do not force the boom past its natural stopping point.
Loosen the oversized thumb nut on the side of the headset by hand. Adjust the headband up or down until the ear domes fit comfortably over your ears. Tighten the thumb nut to lock the position.
Replace the ear seals if they become worn, torn, or hardened over time. To install a new ear seal, insert the lip of the seal into the groove of the ear dome. Hold the dome firmly and keep the top of the ear seal in place while working the lip into the groove around the dome. You may need to pull slightly to ensure the seal fits tightly.
Replace the headband if it becomes worn, torn, or hardened. To replace it, grasp the top liner and gently open the Velcro seam to separate it from the inner strip. Remove the old headband and insert the new one.

General Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help keep your headset performing properly and looking like new.

Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, and do not submerge any part of the headset in water.

Use a clean, damp cloth to gently wipe the ear cups and head pad. For heavily soiled areas, use a mild solution of water and household liquid detergent.

To clean the microphone and plugs, wipe them with a clean cloth lightly dampened with alcohol.

Ear seals and microphone muffs are replaceable and should be changed as needed when they become worn.
