Flying Video - Sound Track
Ages ago I took G-HUEY to an airshow where a BBC team wandered around putting together a 2 minute clip for the local evening news. They spliced it together to the sound of Genesis' "the Brazilian" - can recommend the finished result.
I've seen a very good display video of a Hughes 300 helicopter backed by Robbie Williams "Let Me Entertain You"
It's a big file (20meg) but the music fits well.http://libra.technology.users.btopen...m/DRKJ2002.WMV

A track called Furious Angels by Rob Dougan (of Clubbed To Death - The Matrix Soundtrack fame) is great for flying vids....slow start, punchy build up.......
Happy editing

I hope you are planning to pay all those nice artists their royalties, as I had the same idea once for a Nimrod promotional video.
Had to use some off the shelf made up synthesiser musac in the end.

Welcome to the 21st Century! Who is making these time expired suggestions like Whitesnake, Phil Collins and Queen! L.I.L.O. - look for a current song that will become a future classic, possibly due to the fact it will be on your video. There are plenty of awesome flying vids out there, check out some of Sackdragger's Harrier compilations for ideas. Take your time to pick the right track but 80's glam rock - I dare you!

I've got a couple of vids, all 30-40MB. Can anyone give me some idiot-proof instructions as to how to make them available online (PM me)?
Would love to get a digital copy of that 'Here I go again' GW1 if anyone's got one.
The music I used for my latest GW2 vid is 'Boom' by POD - seems to work quite well, as long as you've got lots of things blowing up of course.

How about some early Doors tracks -- "Spanish Caravan" or several from Strange Days come to mind. Or how about It's A Beautiful Day's "Wasted Union Blues"? Or even "White Bird" although maybe that's a trifle corny.
Queen still does it for me though . . .

I've asked this beofre, but does anyone remember the Copterfest compilation with " Don't stop me now" by Queen as a soundtrack.
Cracking Stuff Grommit!

LI-LO,
You don't say what you fly. But if you are single-seat I would imagine your squadron antics (in 'your own special way') might benefit from say Pet Shop Boys, or Liza Minnelli or Will Young.....
Hur Hur.
Good luck anyway and make your you use the clip with the boss naked during the middle 8.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here with the full intro.
Dawn - airfield awakening and coming to life - lightening sky - building to crescendo as burners go in etc.
Done once already by the beeb on the Ark Royal last commission programme, but worth another go IMHO. Crescendo timed to F-4 launch off the captapult......orgasmic!

I tried U2’s elevation on a part clip and it worked quite well. I also used Thunderstruck and it fits perfectly!!! I like Dawn and the like, as I have your usual dawn scene with the aircraft having its BF, walk around, then taxi, takeoff etc..Was thinking of adding some WW2 footage I have as the Squadron has fairly historical links but I think it will drag it out too much....I am using Premier so its pretty easy to add in tracks. I am slowly trying all the suggested and will keep all updated..thanks again...hopefull will get it down sometime in the new year

There were actually 2 videos made, one by TV AM in Bahrain containing 2 music montages and several "outtakes" and one by SKY in Dhahran
As has been said, Bahrain is Phil Collins In the Air Tonight & Whitesnake Here I Go Again on My Own
Dhahran has George Michael Freedom. The other tune is by Huey Lewis & the News , but being old, the name of the tune escapes me. They also did a combined land'/air video to Bette Middler Wind Beneath My Wings
My copies are in storage.
Combined they run to ~ 27 mins
Nostalgic Stuff -
The tunes as thay taxy out on In the Air Tonight still makes my spine tingle
Paul with "They're all asleep in their little beds" ****!!!
And the superb editing to get a Hellfire imapact on the relevant beat of ...Freedom (bang), Freedom (bang) .... was excellent
Any music videos out of more recent conflicts??

Don't wish to be accused of dragging things out if the archives but just wondering if you completed the vid LILO? If so any chance of popping it on the net so we lucky broadband users can admire it?
Also - being a relatively young chappie I've never been lucky enough to view many of the old videos that people are forever harking on about - someone must have them in digital format so any chance of wacking them up for all to enjoy? I'm sure many would be grateful!
