Cue of the Week: Flying From Arcadia

One of the more fun cues from The F-Zone, this music accompanied an air flight montage over some beautiful scenery and, ultimately, to a llama farm. (Yes, the old hero-visits-llama-farm-by-air cliche.) The plane, a small Cessena-like affair, was not only flown by built by the film's writer and lead actor.

By the way, the Arcadia in the title refers to the municipality north of Pasadena rather than the idyllic city in ancient Greece.

This is very nicely done. Love the climax near the end. I wished the whole piece was longer. Since I live in Arcadia, CA it is notable to mention that it is a city east of Pasadena. Altadena however is the unincorporated town north of Pasadena.

Thanks both for the kind words and geographical correction.
