I prefer Wagner's "Ride of the Valkeries" when I do my low-level stuff.


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.
