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?

I prefer listening to audio books and old radio shows (The Shadow
knows!). I have an MP3/CD player that plugs into the intercom and
automatically mutes the audio when the aircraft radio starts talking.
I can store anywhere from 10 to 40 hrs. of audio on each CD
(depending on the sound quality), so I don't have to change discs in
flight.

A lot of people say you have to be high to listen to Pink Floyd.
I guess that's what they mean.

Bt the way, Dave Gilmour's gnat:

Joe Satriani for those low level, chase the squirrels, type of flights.

Hi, I've been following for a while, but feel constrained to post
here. I soar with a guy who is the single most straight-laced fellow I
know. He is a Delta pilot and is very formal. He never wears shorts,
calls everyone by their formal appelation...ya know, the kind of guy
who looks like he has a stick up his...well, you know?

Anyway, we were consuming a few beers and someone put a Jethro Tull
album on the stereo...and when "Locomotive Breath" came on, he told us
that particular song was the single best song he ever listened to when
he was flying B-52's at 400 feet AGL on low level training.

Changed my entire perspective on him and the Air Force.

I like Floyd for my flying pleasure.

Hell, yea!

1940's vintage Jazz & Big Band for day cruising.
Pink Floyd for night flights.

Would those night flights be over the dark side of the moon?

Cool - but who counts as "Charlie" in your part of the world, and does it
scare them?

Oh, and do they surf?

grin That movie's got very little to do with Vietnam, but damn, it's a
still a good movie!

I can pick up a las vegas FM radio station all the way to LA, no need for
Xfm

It's hard to find a Vietnamese man named "Charlie", they're all named Dom
and Nguyen, and things like that..
