    It was Rog's pick, and I see he answered. :D

    I had it on the first sentence, but the music clue sealed it. "Flight of the Valkyries" can't be beat for a [chopper] cavalry charge. :cool:

    Sahara, the good one with Bogart, not the remake with Belushi the younger.

    Nope, sorry. Never seen the original, but the remake seems to be on autoloop these days.

    Would you believe this was the 'music' I was talking about ? The O-2 Skymaster from the local Guard Unit would fly over my house in the late 60's. The sound of the Huey H1 has to be the most reassuring noise ever created. No offense to Wagner.

    Oh and ; I love the sound of afterburners in the morning.

    Try this...picture the smoke at the beginning, then as the guitars kick in the helicopters break the the smoke...then when the drums kick in, the mayhem starts...


    try to listen till the end...this is a piece of music magic. And Slayer are American...this would get me shitting myself on the ground more than the flight of the Valkyries...or (Highway to the) Danger zone...


    TURN IT UP!!
