This audio collection offers a library of aircraft and train passes and bys (and a random helicopter) , captured over two nights in my garden which is under the London Gatwick Airport flighpath and a nearby railway line. Designed for professionals seeking authentic and high-fidelity audio, this collection provides a rich tapestry of sonic experiences.

Aircraft Recordings:

Commercial Jet Traffic: Recorded overnight under the Gatwick flight path at night to minimize extraneous noise, these recordings capture the distinct sounds of various commercial jetliners operating at approximately 5,000 feet. The collection encompasses a range of aircraft types, offering a nuanced perspective on the acoustic signatures of modern aviation.
Private and Light Aircraft: Complementing the commercial jet recordings, this mini collection also features a variety of smaller private jets and a propeller plane operating around 2,500 feet. These recordings provide valuable insight into the sonic characteristics of lighter aircraft, further diversifying the collection’s offerings.
Altitude Data: Each aircraft recording is accompanied by approx altitude data, verified by a reliable flight tracking application. This metadata adds another layer of information for sound designers and editors, enabling them to select recordings that accurately reflect specific aircraft types and flight operations.
Train Recordings:

Commuter Train Variety: Captured approximately 20 feet from the railway line, these recordings showcase the diverse soundscape of commuter rail traffic. The collection features an array of train types, each with unique sonic characteristics defined by varying speeds, weights, and configurations. This diversity ensures that sound professionals have access to a comprehensive palette of authentic train sounds. For these I used an Audio-Technica BP4025 microphone renowned for its ability to capture realistic and immersive soundscapes, these recordings transport listeners to the heart of the railway environment. The microphone placement, carefully chosen to optimize sonic clarity and detail, ensures that each recording faithfully represents the dynamic energy of passing trains.
Technical Excellence:

Professional-Grade Equipment: All recordings were captured using state-of-the-art equipment, including Zoom H2n (for the overnight recordings) and F3 recorders, 
This meticulously crafted collection provides an invaluable resource for sound designers, filmmakers, game developers, and any creative professional seeking authentic and high-quality aircraft and train audio. Its diverse range of recordings, coupled with precise metadata and technical precision, makes it an indispensable tool for enriching any audio project.
