airband
Pilot radio spectrum
Airband refers to the radio frequency range used for aviation communication between pilots and air traffic control, typically 108-137 MHz.
Enthusiasts use airband scanners to monitor these transmissions.
Separately, airband (also air band) describes the act of mimicking playing instruments to recorded music—essentially air guitar extended to a full ensemble, often performed competitively or for comedy.
