Recording aircraft audio with an iPhone

The Big Q is whether the Iphone 5 uses a normal 3.5mm-plug hands free kit which works with other phones.

My old headset that came with a Nokia E52 works fine with the iPhone 5 and vice versa. So I don't think Apple deviated too much from what is common practice in this case.

FlightLink App and a Zulu Head Set workes fine!

I asked a friend in San Francisco who is the product manager for iphone and ipad accessories. This is what you need;

Yeah, I know. I've watched several "how to use an external mike" clips before I asked here. The above adapter seems to be available im the US only and I'd like to avoid buying there. It seems that Headset Buddy is the similar so I'll try that. Thanks.

The cable here

works very well on the iPhone 4. I am too poor to test it on an iPhone 5 :(

Vested interest declared - I own said pilot shop :)

Exactly what the doctor ordered! :-) Meanwhile I have ordered Headset Buddy. Let me test that first. If that won't work, I will buy the above from your shop. Promised!

FWIW, there is no problem with a discussion on EuroGA whereby a business talks openly about its products - provided the poster contributes to the site generally.

The poster just needs to make his business connection clear.
