I am asking this question from a standpoint of great interest as I will be applying to a major airline in a few years. Aside from the qualifications such as Commercial Pilots License and Airline Transport Pilots License and obviously experience, are certificates such as First Aid etc highly sought after in a pilot as this shows the pilot isn’t ‘narrow minded’? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

I’m a light aircraft pilot, and I currently have “Pilot Communications” brand headsets. However, the mike on one hardly picks up my voice, and I have to raise the volume completely to hear with the other one.
Consequently, I’m shoping for another one. My instructor advised me to get “Telex”. Price-wise: up to $300 Can you give me your advice if you’re a pilot? Thank you!
