Its a scream....


Best,

Twisted Tunes and Bob Rivers rock! I used to listen to them each morning on the way to work when I lived in Seattle. A lot of them are even more funny when you are familiar with the local culture. "Beat Up Old Jetliner" is great!

 

[Northern Lights]

Did anyone manetion Stevie 'Guitar' Miller's "Jet Airliner"?

And what's that oldie with the line about "gimme a ticket for an aeroplane, ain't got time to take the fast train....."

Oh yeah The "Letter" sung by Joe Cocker, origionally by someone else.

And "I'm Ready to Fly" --FFH

Thread drift....Anyone know who sings that country song about "The good ole hocky game."?
"...the puck goes in, the home team wins at the good ole hockey game!" aww never mind!

For all of us Fandango fanatics ..... "Born To Be Wild" - Steppenwolf

"Moneys for Nothing" stands out for me.
It was 0230, CAVU, and I needed a wake up, I tuned the walkman to "The Zoo" KZEW in Dallas. Just as I was over downtown "Moneys for nothin and you haul checks for free" came on, the BE-58 rolled mid-field at DAL. And I danced off the wing.
Man those were the days.

"Get your motor runnin,
Head out out to the runway,
Lookin for V-1,
Rotate when it comes my way.
Born to fly.

I am sometimes slow, but you're kidding, right?

 

[Cowboypilot]

Negative, not kidding....have witnesses, including the tower controller/beer drinking buddy.

I meant about the words to the tune. Reminds me of that commercial; "Pour some shook-up ramen?"

 

[Rolling-Thunder]

For all the Pax haulers............

Just Another Plane - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

 

[Aeronca]

Not sure if it's been mentioned: Travelin' Band by Creedence Clearwater Revival.
