I highly doubt if any of the top 50% or so of comp pilots would be on music,
some don't even like radio. [Ingo dosen't even like audio vario!!]

Not a problem when you are <30 years of age Tom. Get an old set of ears and
see how you go.For me, I'd like to think pilots are flying their gliders with
all their OWN instruments focused on the job, especially when they
are anywhere near me.
If it truly enhanced flying ability every comp pilot in the world would be
'plugged in'. Somehow I don't think you'll find too many admit to doing this.
How would you feel about your instructor plugging his Ipod into his head while
training because it "increased his focus" ?
If you were working for me, your IPOD would be elsewhere.

What's your aircraft Rego?? I'll keep an eye out for it.

I also listen to a bit of music during cross country flights It seems to make
me more focused for whatever reason (I also listen to an iPod at work where it
has the same effect).
I listen to a pretty wide range, though nothing too pumping. Should also
mention that it is never even close to being loud enough to block out any
outside noise. I can still hear vario (which I like very quiet) and flarm with
ease.

I do sometimes if I get a good run.
Just random music for me. I did just get some flamenco kind of instrumental
tunes that I thought might be good.
Have to remember not to have it to loud though so you can hear the radio.

Subject: [Aus-soaring] Music while flying?
Hi all,
I'm about to wire in a new transceiver and note it has an audio input for
your CD player, ipod etc. Which got me wondering....do any of you listen to
music while soaring? What music is it, or what would it be if you did?
Cheers, Ben
