Long time no see! 8)

I was wondering if any of you guys knew what music Matt Younkin played during his airshow routine. There's obviously the "Elephant Waltz", but what is the other piece?

Cheers!
:drinkers:

Not sure if this is current but believe he used to have "Wind Beneath My Wings"....I could be wrong...I am rarely able to hear the announcers or music during the shows

All I can say is....SHUT UP AND LET US WATCH AND HEAR THE AIRPLANE. :axe:
I'm not sure knowing his favorite color and what he had for breakfast adds anything to the show.
The prop tips going supersonic is far more entertaining than that narrative.
I know I've heard that music somewhere but can't put my finger on it. I'll remember about 2AM. My filing system just works that way. :?

Mudge the purist.

(OK...If it's his wife and he wrote the narrative...I'm all for it. :hide:)

I stand corrected......Matt has changed the music......not sure what it is but I like it.

But yes, Mudge, I like the pure uninterrupted sound of the aircraft also :D

Nice video! :D (of course it's mine lol)

Anyways, to quote Matt, "Its from the movie Alexander but I'm not sure the title..."

And I went to search... I can hear "Titans" from the movie in his routine...
