Best flying song?

I second that Jack. I was in high school when Top Gun came out, and I
had a 900 Ninja a few months before the movie came out. Immediately
saved up more money for a leather jacket : -) Too bad I didn't join
the Navy, there was something abouit being stuck in a ship for up to
six months at a time.

I did sign up for the Marines like dad did, but dad yanked me out, I
was seventeen and forged his permission.

I don't know if anyone mentioned Chritopher Cross' "Ride like the wind"
yet, but I always enjoyed that song.

"Amelia" - Joni Mitchell

I was driving across the burning desert
When I spotted six jet planes
Leaving six white vapor trails across the bleak terrain
It was the hexagram of the heavens
it was the strings of my guitar
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

The drone of flying engines
Is a song so wild and blue
It scrambles time and seasons if it gets thru to you
Then your life becomes a travelogue
Of picture-post-card-charms
Amelia, it was just a false alarm

The Battle of Britain Soundtrack is my personal favorite. No words, but if
you've seen the movie a few dozen times, the music alone conjures up some
incredible images.

"Little Wing" as performed by Derek and the Dominos ain't bad either.

"My Bomber Flies 10,000 Miles" - Oscar Brand

"Give me Operations,"
"Bless 'Em All,"
"Throw a Nickel on the Grass, Save a Fighter Pilot's Ass," -- Oscar Brand

In the late 50s, Oscar Brand produced (three, IIRC) albums of aviation
songs, two military and one civil. These are a couple of them. The above
dated back to WW-II and Korean Wars and are sardonic and funny.
