Flying Video - Sound Track
I am putting together one of those rather daggy and self congratulating but somewhat engrossing, Squadron Flying videos. Any ideas for sound tracks for both the Flying Scenes as well as the "boys antics" on the ground?

Engine noise and engine noise only. Too much music used in aviation videos nowadays. I get really peed off when BBMF or sparrows are on TV / Video and they play some 
muzak over the top.

Feel the noise
How about, "It's raining men?"
But seriously, for the Draggie it would have to be "Come on feel the noise" by Twisted Sister.
Or how about something slower like Pink Floyds "Learning to fly".
Good luck and by the way... I want a copy.

In the Air Tonight has been used for a video already but is a good choice. Said vid was a quite good to say the least - 12/208 Sqn GW1 - Incidently does anyone know where I can get a copy?

Yes, that would be the TVAM 'Boys from Bahrain' video. Cracking vid. Motivational stuff - would have made a good recruiting video. It had Phil Collins - In the air tonight and Whitesnake - Here I go again, plus a bit of "nothing on the RWR, they're all asleep boys, they're all in their little beds". I did have a copy, but someone pinched the tape: it was as worn out as an 8th generation grumbleflick, though. Through the gift of broadband maybe someone could post a copy for download - they've done similar in the private flying forum, but puddlejumpers just aren't so exciting.
Back to the thread, you can't go wrong with some 'soft rock anthems'. Nuff said.

having been lucky (or unlucky enough, depending how you look at it) to be based out of Bahrain dropping JP233 on the early GW1 missions, we were mostly 15Sqn, plus 617, 27 and some 14 crews and one 20 Sqn pilot - GR1s - (not 13 or 2 Sqns who were based at Dhahran) and we were all given free copies of said video - the one with Whitesnake "here i go again" and Phil Collins "In the air tonight". I assume the Jag and Bucc guys recieved the same.
It was very professionally made by TV AM and although i still have a copy it was worn paper thin through over-use in the months after we returned. Great momento of the event as it features some that never made it to the end and some that are not here today.
As for the music - anything by Kylie will do, probably "Spinning around"!!!

I've used Also Sprach Zarasthrustra (sp?), O Fortuna, 'Bohemian Like You' by the Dandy Warhols, 'Year 3000' by Busted, Liberty Bell (Theme from Monty Python) to name but a few...probably blown my user name now but hey....
I've found the key is to pitch the music to what fits the squadron best, rather than some 'top gun' b@ll@x.....
Best of luck!

P.S. Worst vid I ever saw was a GR4 squadron post US weapons det - endless ML air to air shots with no action, no action near the ground (you've got have the speed rush!).dull, dull, dull!

Thanks guys...some great ideas...I have wide and varied airborne shots as well as some video of Squadron members socialising (in our own special way....). I'll be trying to match scenes with the sound track but will overlay it with the actual audio source in some cases to add to the affect. Have a number of "last flight bishings" but probably should go on a separate video...

Just to support what's been said earlier - can we get some of these squadron vids online for all to enjoy? If the Private Flying guys can manage it I'm sure we could at least have a go! Would be great to see some gung-ho action and reminisce (sp?) over old times!

I use Adobe Premiere as my editing tool - you can overlay music, bring up or chop original soundtracks, use the awesome special effects etc etc. Very comprehensive and quite expensive - but the results speak for themselves! (Full motion DVD quality output with stereo soundtrack)
Putting the vids online would be a good option but for the rules regarding copyright and 'public performance'......
And to be honest you'd need broadband to make it worthwhile. However, if you want a Canberra vid drop me a PM.
Cheers
