Default What kind of music do pilots like?
I always wonder what you airline guys like to listen to on CD players, car radios, MP3 players, etc.

I'm a classic rock man myself.

Mostly classical. I took a couple of music appreciation courses in college, and (to my surprise) I was hooked.

Love the classic rock, or "Geezer Rock" as my wife calls it...

Rarely listen to public airwaves, but there is a fairly good jazz station in Wichita that I'll use as background music. I carry an MP3 player loaded with Jim Nabors greatest hits the rest of the time when I am on the road (kidding).

Whatever's on, except metal, some country, thrash, etc.

If it has a good beat or good lyrics, I'm game. Or if it has afterburners
