sewerpiper:
Are you aware that the "skypilot" in the 60's Animals song is a military chaplain?

My nominees:
"Volare" originally by Domenico Modugno in 1958 and later made popular by Dean Martin.
"Come Fly With Me" by Frank Sinatra (and probably a hundred others)
Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" for all those United commercials.

"Going to California" by Led Zeplin, because that seems to be the only trip I ever make. Other favorites while on the airways:
"Alien" by Pennywise
"Chrome" by Trace Atkins
Just about anything by Led Zeplin, Johny Cash, and Metalica

I think the song that mention the 707 is by Aerosmith.

 

[Purple Haze]

Lonely is the Night – Billy Squire

Ridin’ the Storm Out – REO

Nobody’s Fault but Mine – Led Zep

I’ve Been Everywhere – Johnny Cash

"Morning has broken" by Cat Stevens always reminded me of flying for some reason......and of course, anything from the TOP GUN sound track.
