Pretty typical, I think.

Just curious, why do you think it would be unfair?

Well, in my three years of flying at multiple FBOs, Id never encountered that before. Usually, if I asked for a loaner headset, I wasn't charged at all..

What's a $5 fee in the whole scheme of things? If one pays $110/hr for an aircraft, charging for a headset just seems pointless and cheasy... just to grab a few extra bucks.

Just my opinion though.

Thanks for everyone's responses by the way!
