If playing shirtless volleyball with your bros is gay then I don't want to be straight.

i like jets and wish there were more movies where they were a focus, so im looking forward to this. Anyone who feels the same way might want to check out R2B/Soar into the Sun. Its a pretty entertaining movie

Is he actually flying? I know he can and it really does look like he is.

I doubt he's flying the jets. Probably just in the back seat.

Apparently he did some of the flying, and the other members of the cast before being cast were required to pass the G-training so the sequences could actually be acted upon while experiences real G's.

I can't see the Navy letting Tom Cruise fly an F-18. If he's doing any flying in the movie it'll be in something else.

I definitely think the shots are real. They were already doing filming from the backseat on the first Top Gun, but the shots just didn't look good so they opted for a studio rig. This time they're adamant that the shots are actually from the jets.

I just saw the episode of Conan where they showed the trailer. The ridiculous part is where they said that it had been 30+ years of service and he had not been promoted to Admiral and was still flying jets. Even if he was a 20 year old in the first movie, that would make him a 50+ year old still flying jets. There's no way he would be medically clears to still be flying jets as somebody over 50. That's just mind-blowingly dumb.

 

Just doing some simple googling, you can even be allowed to be a military jet pilot past the age of 35.

No, if you actually look at his record, it looks like he may have flown it in 2000 as a one-off.

 

The last time he was a pilot doing missions was back in 1986

It was in your own link It clearly says that he got promoted to commander and executive positions from the 90's onwards. LOL

 

I love that you have the urge to try to even make this an argument, and you still found someway to fail. LOL the dingleberry who smiley'd your post.
