Well for me ithas to be Ska music with some Billy Idol, Supertramp and Beach Boys. I will say though I go along the same lines as Bob on this one, I would much rather have a good chin wag then isolate myselfwithin my own small world there again I did used to be a manic depressive.

Hooray for Revs.

Another thing that is nice to have on a zune or video ipod, is some movies. I've got about 7 movies on my zune for those long rides to kite festivals.

Could always learn a language on mp3 while flying or is that a multi task.

... I would love to get some ideas for some new songs to fly to.
Post your favorite songs you like to play when you are flying...

I probably take this too seriously but I'm forever tweaking my playlists in search of the ultimate flying soundtrack. I have a playlist for my SLE and another for the SUL. As the SUL is for lighter winds I usually (try to) fly it 'smoother' or more gracefully and therefore the SUL playlist has mostly 'light' classical music with beautiful melodies. I have found that those all-time-favourite classics compilation CDs useful as they are cheap and as you would probably recognise most of the tunes, you can fly along to them. Some more dramatic pieces work too e.g. Dvořák's Symphony No.9, "From the New World".

With the SLE playlist I have many of tunes/artists other members have listed but would recommend trying:
Amy Winehouse - Back to Black
Mercury Rev – Deserter's Songs & All is Dream
Freak Power - Drive Thru Booty
Johnny Cash - (all of the 'American Recordings')
Santana – Abraxis

Interestingly, I have found myself enjoying songs on albums that I previously might have skipped but now I appreciate them as great flying soundtracks.

That's a hard question. I have over 3000 songs on my i-pod. But Pink Floyd "The Wall Live", Queen "A kind of magic"(soundtrrack to Highlander & iron Eagle) and if you really want a wild ride ANYTHING by King Crimson(but try court of the crimson king or I talk to the wind.) Im just now experimenting with some Bluegrass.

WATTY ..

I'm even sadder than that .. I have all my Rev DVD's and the few instructional video's I've managed to download on my iPhone so I can refer to them, listen to sounds or take calls without putting my handles down!
