Music in planes?

Is it allowed to listen to music while at the commands of an aircraft?
Is so, do you?

What else do you do during long flights once auto-pilot is engaged? Do
you just take time to watch the landscapes?

Solo flight is THE best place to listen to good music. I have cd
compilations that I have put together for just that purpose.
The new Lightspeed headsets are a great help- the CD player plugs right into
the battery box. You get great sound that will automatically cut out when
your com frequency receives.

I keep an eye out for traffic, and listen to the radio for calls.
sometimes I will have the ADF on to listen to whatever I can pick up

XM satellite radio. The only way to go.

I've got and XM radio "Roady" that I use in the plane. News, Weather, Sports
and lots of Music (uninterrupted). Works Great.

Yes.

Autopilot?

That too. One of the advantages of high-wing aircraft.

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."

Sorry, George -- in your case, that would be your subconscious. :~)

Oh... You must mean my stepson (here, Peter; your plane). He's not engaged, though.
He's only 15, and we want him to wait a while before he gets married.

XM Radio in the cockpit?? Whatever happened to the days of
just "getting away from it all"?

I have the opertunity every now and again to fly an SR 20 which has a
great Creative lab's MP3 setup which cuts in and out if COMS recieve
(including internal so if you have a chatty passenger you may miss all
the good bits) Its a nice way to fly, flight following with autopilot
engaged (the plane does everything but make the coffee) you just need
to look out!.
