Music with aviation theme

[PHXFLYR]

How about some instrumentals? Watched an old Jimmy Stewart flick at the crashpad the other day called "Strategic Air Command" Stewart gets recalled to active duty and flys the Convair B36 as Aircraft Commander. That airplane is a big old 10 engine long range startegic bomber with 6 pusher piston engines and 4 turbojets mounted in pods out near the wingtips. I mean this sucker is as ugly as sin. But some of the aerial scenes with the background instrumentals just made you want to get out there and go flying. Same thing with an old TV show from the mid 60's called "12 O'clock High" I still remember the melody to that theme song to this day.

Sorry to re-hash this but I'm sitting here listening to my I-Pod and the ultimate flying song is playing. I can't believe I didn't think of it earlier or for that matter anyone else. "Time for me to Fly" by REO Speedwagon. Talks about breaking up with women and flying all in the same song.....LOL
