Eh...spacecamp song... AVIATION CHALLENGE SONG!

Post by Right Stuff »

Well after hearing this "Space Camp Song" it was alright... but i cant help but to notice that AC hasnt been mentioned once... its not cool at all... i know AC is years and years newer... but still a little recognition please... maybe this song will help... i just wrote it...





AVIATION CHALLENGE:

At AC excitement did abound,
flew to 20,000 feet,
with out leavin' the ground.
The centrafuge, it spun me around.

Well the first man in space,
was a Naval Aviator.
That guy who broke the sound barrier,
was Chuck Yeager.

Flying Mach II,
with our hair on fire.
With all the G's,
we did not tire.

At AC, excitement did abound,
we learned to survive,
if we got shot down.
The centrafuge it,
spun me around.

All Camo'ed out,
looking for a downed pilot.
Searching the woods,
was quite a riot!

On graduation day,
we got our wings.
Its the most prized,
of ALL MY THINGS!!!

At AC excitement did abound,
flew to 20,000 feet,
without leaving the ground.
The centrafuge it, spun me around.

The centrafuge it,
spun me around~



If i had the equiptment i would sing this song in my flight suit for the Space Camp/ AC biggest Fan contest thing~ but hey if anyone wants to sing it please do! i would like to see a fellow pilot win!

"Puff The Magic Dragon?" Oh come on, despite the fact I don't think I can carry a tune in a bucket, I'd at least sing something a little better than that in the shower...

And btw, all this talk of you "Pulling Off Something" has me insanely scared, and I'm 600 miles away....

Sounds like Spanky Has a Full Band of Players

Space Geeks has Max Q. But it sounds like AC kids could look to Spanky and the Shower Singers for flight pilot songs. I know first hand Gordo has lots of great shower tunes from back in the day.

There already is, and has been for quite some time, an AC song.

Actually, I think Gordo sang the first Aviation Challenge song way back when - I'm not sure if it can be printed here.

If you are thinking baout the song that starts with a "sc.....", then you would be correct. I thought Napalm was our first sone we did....ahhhhhh...those were the days.

I was thinking of Napalm, that and Gordo broadcasting it on the radio...92J your warmonging station.

That would be a Top Five lister in Songs Of Aviation Challenge.

Gordo did little more than regurgitate what we heard at the Det at Bama. At least McFly's was original minus the tune.

I heard that cadence first in 1989 in ROTC (dating myself) - so yes, Gordo simply brought it into context at AC - including mentioning it on a LIVE radio program. For those reasons, it would be a top AC song - not the number one mind you, but up there somewhere.
