Default Aviation song for US?

In German there are two songs which could be considered the anthem of
aviation:

The upbeat "Flieger, grüß mir die Sonne" ("Pilot, greetings to the sun")
from the movie "F. P. 1 antwortet nicht", 1932, sung by Hans Albers
(http://www.drachenflieger.org/media/flieger/index.htm)
And the more melancholic "Über den Wolken muß die Freiheit wohl grenzenlos
sein" ("Above the clouds freedom must have no limits") by Reinhard Mey,
1970th(?); sorry, couldn't find any online version.

Question: is there something similar in the US? _The_ aviator song?
