"We're Up In the Air, the Junior Birdmen"

I wanted to fly ever since hearing this song when I was 5 years old...

When I was but a wee little crew chief, my FE and I used to tap into the ICS
system of our CH-47D, and listen to Rage Against the Machine, as we'd thread
our way along the No Fly Line of the DMZ in Korea...It was exhilerating if
you had a pilot who liked to yank and bank and do terrain flight like it's
meant to be done!

Did I see you at First Landing Saturday?

Don't think so...I don't fly the CH's anymore...moved up to the MH- 3 years
ago

I haven't seen anyone mention Where Eagles Fly, by Sammy Hagar.



Pink Floyd's Learning to Fly is my favorite.

What's your favorite tune with a flying subject?

Is it time for the quarterly "flying song" thread already? My how time
flies!

I'd say pretty much any song by Captain Beefheart qualifies.

Quarterly? I thought it was daily.

I'm not sure if this is a good or a bad thing.
Probably a bad thing; most things are bad things.

Van Halen : "Dreams"

Rush's 'Red Barchetta' is a good one, a song about a car, but I think it
captures the spirit of flying well.
