| Alexis Park Inn & Suites Jingle -- Yes, we have a *real* radio jingle that plays on all of our ads. Click to hear our latest radio ad, if you dare! | |
| Antonov AN-2 Starting Up Ah, the lovely sound of a radial engine rumbling to life... | |
| New 3/17/07 Bad Day for Ground Control Listen as this ground controller tries to sort out an incredible mess at JFK Airport in New York City. | |
| Bell 407 Turbine Helicopter Start-up From the Sonoma County Sheriff's Department. | |
| Great Sounding Engine! Nothing else sounds like a Rolls-Royce Merlin... | |
| Hawker Tempest Flyby The lovely sound of a a 24 cylinder Napier Sabre engine at high power! | |
| Icing Mayday! Another terrifying audio file of a pilot who has lost control. This aircraft -- a Fed Ex Cessna Caravan -- flew into icing conditions and lost control. | |
| MAYDAY-MAYDAY-MAYDAY! This audio file of a VFR pilot who has lost control in the clouds is absolutely terrifying. Recorded by the Flight Service Station in Fort Dodge, Iowa. | |
| MiG Shootdown! Electrifying in-cockpit audio from the January 4, 1989 Libyan Mig-23 shoot-down by U.S. Navy F-14 Tomcats. Click here to read an official report on this incident. | |
| Pilot Incapacitated! Audio tape of a New England air traffic controller talking down a passenger whose father -- the pilot -- has become incapacitated. | |
| Radial Fly-over! Nothing sounds like a round engine! | |

| P-51 Mustang Fly-By Another Mustang engine recording... | |
| Starting a Pratt & Whitney -- 28 cylinders? Now THAT is a radial engine! | |
| Super Corsair Start-Up An awesome audio of the Planes of Fame Museum's Super Corsair starting up. Nothing sounds like an R-4360. | |
| Turboprop Start-Up -- A great .wav file of a a 250-C20 gas turbine engine starting. (This engine powers light helicopters like the Hughes 500 and Bell Jet Ranger, and was originally built by Detroit Diesel Allison. It is now manufactured by Rolls Royce. It weighs 158 pounds and puts out 427 shaft horsepower.) | |
| The Mighty Cherokee The sound of a 4-cylinder Lycoming O-320 flying over... | |
| Twin Commander Start-up A JetProp with TFE331-10 engines starting! | |
| V-1 Flying Bomb Attack This haunting file records the arrival of a Nazi V-1 Flying Bomb over London during World War II. When the engine stopped, no one knew where it would land (and explode). | |
| Yak Start Up This is a nice, long audio file of a Yak-52's round engine starting up and idling. Give me a round engine, any day! | |
