The cheapo Chinese onse are fully folding, but I hate to use them much becuase they feel like they will break at any moment. Otherwise, they do seem to work well. I've got two styles of the Airman - interestingly, the older one with the full over-the-ear muffs is articulated to fold at the ends, but not in the middle of the headband like the cheapos; the newer style Airman with on-the-ear muffs does not fold at all. Most people seem to prefer the older one for comfort, and they do a better job of sealing out external noise without the NC on. I get good reports on transmit as well. 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
