Friday’s release of Top Gun: Maverick got us thinking about mood music for pilots and others who enjoy listening to a few tunes while aviating—what a great opportunity to curate a special music playlist. 

Naturally, our FLYING Top Gun playlist includes music from the original Top Gun movie soundtrack as well as songs from the new film. For fun, we’ve also added music that references actors, characters, aircraft, and situations from the franchise.
