This was written by Jimmy Van Heusen and Sammy Cahn. Van Heusen had a passion for flying and moonlighted part-time as a test pilot during World War II.
This song went well with Sinatra's image as a debonair jet-setter, and it was a song he often played at his concerts.
Van Heusen and Cahn were very successful American songwriters. Other songs they wrote for Frank Sinatra include "High Hopes" and "Love And Marriage."
