Back in the 80s I always thought these would fit in to and air racing video.

I thought this would fit in an air racing too starting at 1:30 mark I even spliced some VHS together in the 80s but it doesn't convert to digital very well.

It's not a very fast piece but the background music to the first half of this interview is one of the prettiest pieces of music I think I have ever heard. I love the skillful editing too.

Elvis! "Beyond The Bend" from "It Happened At The Worlds Fair". The man was flying a Stearman and singing at the same time! Top that! The band and the backup singers must have been out on the wings.

Robin Trower: Day of the Eagle (Not the Dove). Great song for F15 pilots and crew.

Lyrics:

I saw a light, just up ahead
But I couldn't seem to rise up from my bed
I'm not alone, than I am
People seem to think I'm superman
But I watch for the love
I'm living in the day of the eagle, the eagle not the, dove

Its like a weight, that brings me down
If I don't move, I'm on the ground
Its in my mind, Its in my soul
Its telling me the things I can't be told
I watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove

Another day, another night
I want to love, they want to fight
I need the time, I got to be alone
I got to meet a lover on my own
I watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove

Hey,

This is great. Didn't have it in my library?? Added it to my iTunes wishlist for next purchase.

Will go in m,y driving playlist for sure.

Wow, what a powerful clip that was. Gave me goose bumps. Definitely need to watch that movie again.
Decades back when it first came out I went to see it. I kind of left the theater with a feeling that it was over the top of reality?? But then I was't there to experience nam.

Be interesting to see what my thoughts are now?

The Horsemen P51 Flying Legends Duxford 2009

Crank it up for this. Well done video blending the music of 3 x P51s to a classic sound track. This could work in Reno :-)

In the spirit of Lefty Gardner and White Lightnin' this is excellent stuff too:

Better rendition of the music here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCCan3TFPoc

If you never saw Lefty grace the skies over Reno, you might not get it though.

I miss the 12+ minute clip on youtube with the same pilot/plane/music.
