Top Gun: Maverick Trailer

Funny we must be around the same age,In ‘85-86 my Wife[She was my Girlfriend then] really disliked Tom Cruise[Dislikes him even more now :sweat_smile:] So We skipped the original TG,
At that time I was more into Music and Luxury Cars…I could care less about aviation back then’

I blame you MudSpikers for fueling my Warbird/Aviation Addiction :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s why we need Lil Nas X.

Especially since we’re post- Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.

Back when the USAF did PR films?

And probe AR…

And the producers went all out on realism :wink:, note the “scrunchy” in his C… Cap here (can’t post the actual names used for this). Was a ‘thing’ in the 70’s & 80’s too. Wonder if it still is.

“Probably for the best though; any romantic sub-plot would’ve just been boring…”.

I thought the advert at the start was worth not skipping over too. That’s rare indeed.

Apparently they’re doing a red-carpet premiere event on the Midway this evening- I’ll see if I hear anything from friends who may be there.

I’m hereby exercising my rights granted by a coddling society :laughing: Going solo on opening night. Unfortunately, it will be too warm for a proper flight jacket.

A former F-15 pilot I flew with recently said that the scuttlebutt from friends around the system is that it’s the real deal. I admitted that I never warmed to the original. She replied, “Maybe that’s why you were never a fighter pilot!”

IROs :roll_eyes:
