Ok...so this is a bit odd. And probably very geeky.
But I love the chimes that are played before PA announcements in CDG. I've scoured google for them, but no luck.
So, I'm wondering if anyone might know where I can download an MP3 or WAV file with these chimes? I want them for my mobile phone message notification.

and click on the "Appels/Pubs" category, then on "Appel aroport" ... I have no idea if this is what you want or if it will work, but I definitely know the sound you are looking for!

Is this thing going to be torn down any time soon?

Probably a bit too late for this thread, but I was looking for the CDG "chimes" for a friend, and found this...
