Bose A20 B737 Cockpit Setup Guide

The Bose A20 is widely used by airline pilots, but storing it between use can be surprisingly awkward. On a Boeing 737 flight deck, space is limited and a headset left on a glare shield, seat or other surface can get in the way during normal operations. A consistent storage position makes it easier to put the headset away and find it again when you need it.

Why a dedicated headset position helps

A fixed storage point supports a more organised cockpit setup and reduces the need to move the headset from one surface to another. This is especially useful during turnarounds, when pilots are switching between preparation, boarding and departure tasks. A holder designed for the headset can also be a more suitable fit than a generic hook.

Choose a position that suits your seat

The most practical position depends on the aircraft configuration, seat and your normal workflow. Before installing or using any cockpit accessory, follow your operator's procedures and applicable aircraft requirements. The mount should not obstruct controls, displays, required equipment, movement or access to emergency items. Do not make unauthorised changes to the aircraft.

What to look for in a Bose A20 B737 mount

The Bose A20 has a distinctive headband and earcup shape, so compatibility matters. Choose a mount designed for the Bose A20 and Boeing 737 combination rather than assuming a universal holder will fit in the same way. A left-seat or right-seat configuration can help you select a setup suited to your position. Colour options and personalisation are useful extras, but fit and a sensible mounting location should come first.

Keep the headset organised between sectors

When the headset is not in use, place it in its intended holder and keep the cable arranged so it is not pulled, trapped or left across a working area. The aim is simple: give an essential piece of equipment a predictable place without adding clutter to the flight deck.

A dedicated headset mount is a small accessory, but choosing a compatible product and a suitable position can help keep your cockpit setup more consistent. Always follow your operator's procedures and aircraft-specific requirements.
