    Pat_Pattle, I've got a Logitech headset/mic set, USB type. Good enough for me. Relatively inexpensive.

    Pat,

    I've got an older Plantronics headset that hooks up to a sound card. Works pretty well and no echo when setup properly.

    Grizzley,

    Any thoughts on coop missions? I just spent the past few days reinstalling my Norton software. Actually upgraded to IS from AV because it came with the licenses on my laptop version. I should be good to go for hosting again but I have a busy weekend ahead of me. Lots of projects to do so I'll keep you posted. Maybe I can whip up B-17 escort or something?

    That is the headset that I use. It looks extravagant but at $25 american its a great price. The force feedback is just awesome. You should see if its available in the UK.

    Cheers,

    John

    I've always found these very nice, if a touch on the expensive side. They are not really suitable for use with computers, but you can adapt them if you're clever. Available with luck from militaria/aviation history shops. With luck!

    H'set

    Pat

    After a long time of replacing sets (kids use as well so need to be robust!) I have ended up with EDimension they do have force feedback but I do not use. Seem very good to me hooked into a sound card.

    About $50 in Aus so most likely dirt cheap ther lol.

    Cheers

    This is the one i use, bought it for my my son last XMAS,
    A little more expensive than some others but really like the storage case;
    They have other models too check out the link below, most all should be available in retail stores, Dont know if they are available in the UK.
