Voted #3 Must See Movie of all time by listeners of Capital FM in London. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: Many errors are made when describing maneuvers that various aircraft have made. This is especially noticeable during the briefing before the first hop. moreSoundtrack:
Mighty Wings moreFAQ
Which motorcycle does Tom Cruise ride in the movie?Why aren't more F14's launched for the final dog-fight against the Migs at the end of the film? It seems a little silly to only send up two with Maverick in reserve.

Absolute cheese on a stick, but Top Gun proves that that's not always a bad thing. This movie's got everything - an arrogant prodigy who'd be out on his arse if he wasn't so good, a sensible, uglier best friend, a love interest (although she's a bit of a mess), an arch nemesis and his dumb sidekick, a few cool high fives and catchphrases, an emotional death scene, a euphoric victory scene and of course, some unforgettable action scenes. What more could any red-blooded child of the eighties ask for!? And anyone born around 1980 will remember how everyone was doing that double high five and saying 'talk to me, goose' to the kid next to them in class. Certainly one of my all time favourites.
