1
00:04:12,210 --> 00:04:14,504
- Morning, Scott.
- Morning, Ben
2
00:04:15,338 --> 00:04:16,589
- Morning, Wells.
- Hey, sir.
3
00:04:19,467 --> 00:04:22,818
Ghost Rider, this is Strike.
We have an unknown aircraft.
4
00:04:22,922 --> 00:04:26,818
Inbound Mustang,
you're in Vector 090 for bogey.
5
00:04:36,734 --> 00:04:40,822
- Who's up there?
- Cougar & Merlin, and Maverick & Goose.
6
00:04:41,072 --> 00:04:43,991
Great. Maverick and Goose.
7
00:04:53,292 --> 00:04:56,796
- Talk to me, Goose.
- Roger, I got them. Contact:
8
00:04:57,463 --> 00:04:58,881
20 left at 30 miles, 900 knots closure.
9
00:04:59,131 --> 00:05:02,635
- Cougar, you hear that?
- Roger.
10
00:05:02,885 --> 00:05:06,055
- Merlin, you got them?
- Roger, I've got radar contact.
11
00:05:06,305 --> 00:05:11,686
- I'll get a visual ID, Cougar. You hook them.
- Roger, an' I'll clean 'em and fry 'em.
12
00:05:18,192 --> 00:05:21,230
Mystang, this is Ghost Rider, 203.
13
00:05:21,334 --> 00:05:25,825
I got them inbound, bogey
heading 270 at 10 miles.
14
00:05:26,075 --> 00:05:30,621
- 900 knots closure.
- Ghostrider, take angels 10, left, 3, 0.
15
00:05:30,872 --> 00:05:34,292
- Are we supposed to have visitors today?
- Negative, sir.
16
00:05:41,382 --> 00:05:45,428
- Merlin, see if he's a single.
- Roger.
17
00:05:45,678 --> 00:05:51,267
- Goose, do you see a trailer?
- Negative, Merlin. Looks like he's a single.
18
00:05:51,517 --> 00:05:53,685
- Cougar, I'm gonna go head-to-head with him.
19
00:05:53,789 --> 00:05:56,105
Take it easy, Maverick, I don't like this shit..
20
00:05:56,209 --> 00:05:58,191
I'm gonna break high & right,
see if he's really alone.
21
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,755
- We got a 1000-knot closure, Mav.
He's coming right at us.
22
00:06:21,088 --> 00:06:22,840
Okay, buddy. What's on your mind?
23
00:06:25,676 --> 00:06:28,554
- Shit, there's two of them. MiG-28s!
24
00:06:28,659 --> 00:06:32,725
What the hell are they doing?
What's their position?
25
00:06:32,975 --> 00:06:36,687
- 250 miles out, sir.
- 250 miles? Get 'em out of here!
26
00:06:39,315 --> 00:06:43,319
Cougar, you've got MiG one.
I'm going after MiG two.
27
00:06:43,569 --> 00:06:50,076
I lost him in the sun! Shit, what's
he doing? You got him, Merlin?
28
00:06:51,911 --> 00:06:55,122
He's coming around,
he's coming around on our tail!
29
00:06:55,373 --> 00:06:58,960
Goddamn it. This bogey's all over me.
30
00:07:01,254 --> 00:07:05,112
- What's their range now?
- 200 miles, sir.
31
00:07:05,424 --> 00:07:07,718
If they break 150 miles, launch
the alert-five aircraft.
32
00:07:10,263 --> 00:07:15,059
- Airspeed 300. Go get them, Mav!
- I'm going for missile lock.
33
00:07:15,309 --> 00:07:21,983
Let's see if we can scare him this guy
out of here. Come on, lock up, baby.
34
00:07:22,233 --> 00:07:26,028
I've got him locked. Bingo!
35
00:07:30,449 --> 00:07:33,662
- We got him, Mav. He's
bugging out and going home.
36
00:07:33,766 --> 00:07:36,914
Mustang, this is Maverick.
MiG two is headed home.
37
00:07:37,165 --> 00:07:41,252
- Alright, what's their position?
- 180 miles and bearing 010, sir.
38
00:07:45,089 --> 00:07:47,508
Cougar, he's got missile lock on us!
Get away from this guy!
39
00:07:48,217 --> 00:07:49,594
- What the hell is this shit? He's engaging me.
40
00:07:51,804 --> 00:07:55,683
Goddamn it. Mustang, this is Ghostrider
117, this bogey's all over me.
41
00:07:55,933 --> 00:07:58,750
- He's got missile lock on me,
do I have permission to fire?
42
00:07:58,854 --> 00:08:00,188
Do not fire until fired upon.
43
00:08:02,607 --> 00:08:04,496
- Goose, there they are. Right below us.
44
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,945
The MiG's in perfect firing position.
And he's right on Cougar's tale.
45
00:08:08,154 --> 00:08:11,487
- No way, Goose. He would have fired by
now. He's just trying to piss us off.
46
00:08:11,592 --> 00:08:13,826
Maverick, get down here and
get this asshole off me!
47
00:08:16,537 --> 00:08:22,835
Easy, Cougar. Bring him back,
hard right. Help me engage.
48
00:08:23,085 --> 00:08:25,546
I'm on my way.
49
00:08:41,437 --> 00:08:44,398
I can't shoot this son of a bitch.
Let's see if we can have a little fun with him.
50
00:08:50,154 --> 00:08:52,240
Is this your idea of fun, Mav?
51
00:08:55,660 --> 00:08:58,454
Greetings.
52
00:08:59,831 --> 00:09:02,917
Watch the birdie.
53
00:09:03,167 --> 00:09:05,837
Geez, I crack myself up.
54
00:09:11,968 --> 00:09:15,471
This is a great shot, Mav.
I should be a photographer.
55
00:09:15,721 --> 00:09:20,247
Cougar, your tail is clear.
MiG one has bugged out.
56
00:09:30,111 --> 00:09:34,866
Cougar, this is Maverick. We've had
enough fun for one day, don't you think?
57
00:09:35,116 --> 00:09:38,870
I'm getting a lil' low on fuel,
so we're heading home.
58
00:09:41,455 --> 00:09:44,542
We'll see you on deck.
59
00:09:52,091 --> 00:09:55,261
Cougar, we're running low on gas,
we gotta get outta here.
60
00:09:57,138 --> 00:09:58,556
Cougar?
61
00:10:00,892 --> 00:10:04,645
We're on vapour, Cougar.
Let's do it.
62
00:10:06,689 --> 00:10:09,484
Cougar, come on, Cougar!
63
00:10:17,783 --> 00:10:21,642
- Let's take it back to the ship, man.
Come on, Cougar.
64
00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:24,248
- Get him on deck as soon as possible,
he's gotta be low on fuel.
65
00:10:26,709 --> 00:10:31,839
Cougar, we've got to land this thing.
We are way low on gas, you understand me?
66
00:10:32,089 --> 00:10:33,758
Are you all right, man?
67
00:10:40,202 --> 00:10:43,383
Maverick, you're 3/4 to
fall out, call the ball.
68
00:10:43,487 --> 00:10:45,311
Roger. Maverick has the ball.
69
00:10:48,564 --> 00:10:50,241
Goose, Cougar's in trouble.
70
00:10:50,345 --> 00:10:54,049
Come on, Mav, we're getting low
on gas, let's land this sucker.
71
00:10:55,446 --> 00:10:56,739
Cougar!
72
00:11:04,121 --> 00:11:05,119
Goddamn it, Maverick!
73
00:11:05,224 --> 00:11:07,500
What're you doing, Mav?
We've got no fuel for this.
74
00:11:07,750 --> 00:11:08,751
We're going after Cougar.
75
00:11:10,670 --> 00:11:13,997
You tell him to land that
plane. That's an order!
76
00:11:14,101 --> 00:11:17,760
Ghostrider, you're instructed
to land. Land immediately.
77
00:11:22,473 --> 00:11:25,434
Any of you boys seen
an aircraft carrier around here?
78
00:11:25,685 --> 00:11:29,823
Man, we got a little problem up
here, that MiG really screwed him up.
79
00:11:29,928 --> 00:11:31,941
I don't think he can make it back.
80
00:11:34,944 --> 00:11:40,164
You're okay, Cougar. Just stay on my
wing. I'll take you all the way in.
81
00:11:40,268 --> 00:11:41,534
Just stay with me.
82
00:11:56,215 --> 00:12:00,720
Easy, Cougar.
Just a walk in the park, buddy.
83
00:12:00,970 --> 00:12:06,726
You're a little low. You're a little low, Coug.
Come on, buddy, pull up.
84
00:12:06,976 --> 00:12:09,562
Pull up, Cougar.
85
00:12:11,355 --> 00:12:14,650
That's it. Almost there.
86
00:12:14,901 --> 00:12:18,905
A little below glide path.
3/4 over now, call the ball.
87
00:12:20,323 --> 00:12:21,470
Rogerball.
88
00:12:32,168 --> 00:12:37,381
You're too low. You're too low,
Cougar! More power!
89
00:12:50,165 --> 00:12:51,604
Come in.
90
00:12:56,192 --> 00:12:59,723
- Cougar, you should be in a
sickbed, what's on your mind?
91
00:12:59,827 --> 00:13:01,072
My wife and kid, sir.
92
00:13:01,322 --> 00:13:05,076
I almost orphaned him today,
and I've never even seen him.
93
00:13:06,369 --> 00:13:09,075
I don't know what happened
up there, but I was so scared.
94
00:13:09,179 --> 00:13:10,623
Come on, we've seen this before.
95
00:13:10,873 --> 00:13:12,375
No, sir.
96
00:13:13,668 --> 00:13:19,590
I'm holding on too tight.
I've lost the edge. I'm sorry, sir.
97
00:13:21,759 --> 00:13:22,802
I'm sorry.
98
00:13:29,767 --> 00:13:30,852
Cougar?
99
00:13:33,813 --> 00:13:35,961
Thanks, Maverick.
100
00:13:37,567 --> 00:13:42,123
Maverick, Goose, come in here.
- What the hell's going on?
101
00:13:42,228 --> 00:13:45,992
- I don't know.
- Shit.
102
00:13:49,787 --> 00:13:53,875
Maverick, you just did
an incredibly brave thing.
103
00:13:55,835 --> 00:14:01,215
What you should have done was land your plane.
You don't own that plane, the taxpayers do!
104
00:14:01,465 --> 00:14:04,468
Son, your ego's writing cheques
your body can't cash.
105
00:14:04,719 --> 00:14:09,432
You've been busted, you've lost your
qualifications as section leader three times.
106
00:14:09,682 --> 00:14:14,061
Put in hack twice by me
with a history of high-speed passes...
107
00:14:14,312 --> 00:14:18,191
...over five air control towers
and one admiral's daughter!
108
00:14:18,441 --> 00:14:22,945
- Penny Benjamin?
- You, asshole, you're lucky to be here.
109
00:14:23,654 --> 00:14:25,031
Thank you, sir.
110
00:14:25,281 --> 00:14:29,504
And let's not bullshit, Maverick.
Your family name ain't the best in the Navy.
111
00:14:29,608 --> 00:14:32,962
You need to be doing it better
and cleaner than the other guy,
112
00:14:33,066 --> 00:14:34,332
now what is it with you?
113
00:14:34,582 --> 00:14:37,700
Just want to serve my country, be the
best fighter pilot in the Navy, sir.
114
00:14:37,804 --> 00:14:39,295
Don't screw around with me, Maverick.
115
00:14:39,545 --> 00:14:42,138
You're a hell of an instinctive
pilot. Maybe too good.
116
00:14:42,243 --> 00:14:44,248
I'd like to bust your butt, but I can't...
117
00:14:44,352 --> 00:14:46,463
...I got another problem here.
118
00:14:46,567 --> 00:14:50,264
I gotta send somebody from
this squadron to Miramar.
119
00:14:50,515 --> 00:14:56,448
I gotta do something. I still can't believe it.
I gotta give you your dream shot.
120
00:14:56,552 --> 00:15:02,235
I'm gonna send you up against the best.
You two characters are going to Top Gun.
121
00:15:04,111 --> 00:15:07,365
For five weeks you're going to fly
against the best pilots in the world.
122
00:15:07,615 --> 00:15:12,829
You were number two. Cougar was number one.
Cougar lost it, turned in his wings.
123
00:15:13,079 --> 00:15:18,167
You guys are number one.
But you remember one thing:
124
00:15:18,417 --> 00:15:21,980
You screw up just this much,
you'll be flying a cargo plane...
125
00:15:22,085 --> 00:15:24,423
full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong.
126
00:15:24,674 --> 00:15:26,092
Yes, sir!
127
00:15:29,220 --> 00:15:31,347
That is all.
128
00:15:31,597 --> 00:15:35,810
Tell me about the MiG some other time.
Gentlemen?
129
00:15:36,060 --> 00:15:39,209
- Good luck, gentlemen.
- Thank you, sir. - Thank you.
130
00:16:21,564 --> 00:16:24,253
During Korea, the Navy kill ratio was 12 to 1.
131
00:16:24,357 --> 00:16:27,403
We shot down 12 of their
jets for every one of ours.
132
00:16:27,653 --> 00:16:32,700
During Vietnam, that ratio fell to 3 to 1.
Our pilots become dependant upon missiles.
133
00:16:32,867 --> 00:16:34,785
They lost some of their dog-fighting skills.
134
00:16:35,036 --> 00:16:40,374
Now, Top Gun was created to teach ACM -
'Air Combat Manoeuvring'. Dog-fighting.
135
00:16:40,625 --> 00:16:41,969
- This gives me a hard-on.
136
00:16:42,073 --> 00:16:44,921
By the end of Vietnam, that
ratio was back to 12 to 1.
137
00:16:45,171 --> 00:16:48,216
- Don't tease me.
- Blinds, please.
138
00:16:48,466 --> 00:16:50,257
I'd like to take this
opportunity to introduce you...
139
00:16:50,361 --> 00:16:51,596
to our commanding officer at Top Gun.
140
00:16:51,700 --> 00:16:54,055
...very first man to win the
Top Gun trophy.
141
00:16:54,555 --> 00:16:58,276
You will not find a finer fighter
pilot anywhere in the world.
142
00:16:58,380 --> 00:16:59,727
Commander Mike Metcalf.
143
00:16:59,977 --> 00:17:04,065
- Call sign 'Viper.'
- Gentlemen...
144
00:17:04,315 --> 00:17:08,569
You're the top one percent
of all naval aviators.
145
00:17:10,655 --> 00:17:15,701
The elite. The best of the best.
We'll make you better.
146
00:17:17,495 --> 00:17:21,106
You fly at least two combat missions
a day, attend classes in between,
147
00:17:21,210 --> 00:17:23,042
and evaluations of your performance.
148
00:17:23,292 --> 00:17:26,420
On each combat sequence you're
gonna meet a different challenge.
149
00:17:27,109 --> 00:17:30,080
Every encounter is gonna
be much more difficult.
150
00:17:30,633 --> 00:17:33,557
We're gonna teach you to fly the F-14
right to the edge of the envelope,
151
00:17:33,661 --> 00:17:35,138
faster than you've ever flown before.
152
00:17:35,242 --> 00:17:37,661
And more dangerous.
153
00:17:37,849 --> 00:17:44,105
Now, we don't make policy here, gentlemen.
Elected officials, civilians, do that.
154
00:17:44,355 --> 00:17:49,057
We are the instruments of that policy,
and although we are not at war,
155
00:17:49,161 --> 00:17:52,029
we must always act as though we are at war.
156
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:57,410
- What are you doing?
- Just wondering who's the best.
157
00:17:57,660 --> 00:18:02,748
In case some of you wonder who the best is,
they're here on this plaque on the wall.
158
00:18:02,999 --> 00:18:06,085
The best driver and his RIO
from each class has his name on it.
159
00:18:08,212 --> 00:18:13,926
And they have the option to come back here
to be Top Gun instructors.
160
00:18:14,177 --> 00:18:16,919
You think your name's
gonna be on that plaque?
161
00:18:18,097 --> 00:18:19,348
Yes, sir.
162
00:18:19,765 --> 00:18:23,248
That's pretty arrogant,
considering the company you're in.
163
00:18:26,689 --> 00:18:27,563
Yes, sir.
164
00:18:29,192 --> 00:18:30,756
I like that in a pilot.
165
00:18:32,507 --> 00:18:37,950
Remember, when it's over out there,
we're all on the same team.
166
00:18:39,327 --> 00:18:44,874
Gentlemen, this school is about combat.
There are no points for second place.
167
00:18:45,958 --> 00:18:49,587
- Dismissed.
- Nice going.
168
00:18:51,380 --> 00:18:56,219
The plaque for the alternates
is down in the ladies' room.
169
00:18:58,304 --> 00:19:01,745
Oh, Jesus... You kill me.
You really do.
170
00:19:04,602 --> 00:19:07,188
No, no, no. There's
two O's in Goose, boys.
171
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:26,541
- This is what I call a target-rich environment.
- You live your life between your legs, Mav.
172
00:19:26,791 --> 00:19:29,794
Goose, even you could get laid
in a place like this.
173
00:19:30,044 --> 00:19:33,548
I'd be happy to find a girl
who'd talk dirty to me.
174
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:42,223
Mav, you wanted to know who
the best is? That's him. Iceman.
175
00:19:44,058 --> 00:19:46,519
That's the way he flies.
Ice-cold. No mistakes.
176
00:19:46,769 --> 00:19:51,774
Just wears you down. You get bored, frustrated,
you do something stupid, and he's got you.
177
00:19:52,859 --> 00:19:56,904
Hey, hey, Slider. I thought you wanted
to be a pilot, man. What happened?
178
00:19:57,029 --> 00:20:00,241
Goose, you're suck a dickhead.
Whose butt did you kiss to get here?
179
00:20:00,491 --> 00:20:04,078
- The list is long but distinguished.
- Yeah, so is my johnson.
180
00:20:04,328 --> 00:20:07,227
- So you're flying with lceman, huh.
- It's Mr. Iceman for you.
181
00:20:07,456 --> 00:20:08,791
Hey, Mother Goose, how's it going?
182
00:20:09,041 --> 00:20:13,129
Doing good. Tom, this is Pete Mitchell.
Tom Kazansky.
183
00:20:13,379 --> 00:20:14,878
- Congratulations on Top Gun.
- Thank you.
184
00:20:14,983 --> 00:20:16,534
Sorry to hear about Cougar...
185
00:20:16,639 --> 00:20:20,032
...you know, we were like brothers
in fight school. He was a good man.
186
00:20:20,136 --> 00:20:22,096
- Still is a good man.
- Yeah, that's what I meant.
187
00:20:22,909 --> 00:20:24,296
Thought so.
188
00:20:24,401 --> 00:20:30,646
- So, you need any help? - With what?
- You figured it out yet?
189
00:20:30,897 --> 00:20:35,818
- What's that?
- Who's the best pilot.
190
00:20:36,068 --> 00:20:39,080
No, I think I can figure
that one out on my own.
191
00:20:39,184 --> 00:20:40,542
I heard that about you.
192
00:20:40,646 --> 00:20:43,055
You like to work alone.
193
00:20:45,077 --> 00:20:47,059
Mav, you must've your soul
under a lucky star, huh?
194
00:20:47,163 --> 00:20:49,582
I mean, first the MiG and then
you slide into Cougar's spot...
195
00:20:49,832 --> 00:20:52,293
We didn't slide into Cougar's spot,
it was ours, ok.
196
00:20:52,397 --> 00:20:55,587
Yeah well, some pilots wait a
whole career to see a MiG up close.
197
00:20:55,691 --> 00:20:57,684
Guess you guys are lucky and famous, huh.
198
00:20:57,788 --> 00:21:04,242
- No, you mean notorious. I'll see you later.
- You can count on it.
199
00:21:04,597 --> 00:21:10,332
- They were abused children.
- We're gonna have a good time. - Always.
200
00:21:14,357 --> 00:21:19,883
Okay, I guess it's my turn, isn't it?
All right, the bet is 20 dollars.
201
00:21:20,196 --> 00:21:25,701
You have to have carnal knowledge,
of a lady this time, on the premises.
202
00:21:25,952 --> 00:21:30,122
- On the premises.
- Come on, Mav... a bet's a bet.
203
00:21:30,373 --> 00:21:36,420
I don't know, it just doesn't seem fair...
for you, I mean. But uh...
204
00:21:36,671 --> 00:21:40,018
She's lost that loving feeling.
205
00:21:40,122 --> 00:21:43,521
- She's los... No, she hasn't.
- Yes, she has. - She has not lost that lo...
206
00:21:43,626 --> 00:21:47,974
- Goose, she's lost it, man. Come on.
- I hate it when she does that.
207
00:21:54,355 --> 00:21:57,733
- Excuse me, miss.
- Hey, hey, hey. Don't worry. I'll take care of this.
208
00:21:58,818 --> 00:22:06,518
You never close your eyes anymore
when I kiss your lips...
209
00:22:06,623 --> 00:22:13,864
...there's no tenderness like before
in your fingertips...
210
00:22:13,968 --> 00:22:19,078
You're trying hard not to show it,
baby...
211
00:22:19,182 --> 00:22:24,865
...but baby, believe me, I know that...
212
00:22:24,969 --> 00:22:33,623
You lost that loving feeling,
oh, that loving feeling.
213
00:22:33,728 --> 00:22:40,818
You lost that loving feeling,
now it's gone, gone, gone...
214
00:22:48,117 --> 00:22:51,621
- Sit down.
- Thank you.
215
00:22:59,253 --> 00:23:06,062
I love that song. I've never seen that approach.
How long have you two been doing this act?
216
00:23:06,166 --> 00:23:10,181
- I don't know. Since uh...
- Puberty? - Right, puberty.
217
00:23:10,431 --> 00:23:13,851
- I'm Charlotte Blackwood.
- I'm Maverick.
218
00:23:14,101 --> 00:23:18,062
'Maverick'? Did your mother
not like you or something?
219
00:23:18,166 --> 00:23:19,690
No, it's my call sign.
220
00:23:19,941 --> 00:23:24,779
- You're a pilot!
- That's right. A naval aviator.
221
00:23:25,029 --> 00:23:30,201
- Actually, we've only done this twice.
- Oh, how'd you do?
222
00:23:30,451 --> 00:23:34,116
Crashed and burned on the
first one, it wasn't pretty.
223
00:23:34,221 --> 00:23:35,164
And the second?
224
00:23:35,414 --> 00:23:40,169
I don't know, I'll tell you tomorrow.
But it's looking good so far.
225
00:23:41,838 --> 00:23:48,396
Well, 'Maverick'... my friend just arrived,
so it's been great talking to you.
226
00:23:48,500 --> 00:23:49,929
- Perry! - Hi.
- Hi. Here you go.
227
00:23:50,033 --> 00:23:53,641
I'll be with you in just a second, ok.
228
00:23:54,767 --> 00:24:01,232
- Listen, can I ask you a personal question?
- That depends.
229
00:24:01,482 --> 00:24:07,488
- Are you a good pilot?
- I can hold my own.
230
00:24:07,738 --> 00:24:14,537
Great. Then I won't have to worry about
you making your living as a singer.
231
00:24:20,418 --> 00:24:27,008
I'm gonna need a beer to put these
flames out. Great, Mav. Real slick.
232
00:24:50,990 --> 00:24:55,244
- A long cruise, was it, sailor?
- Too long.
233
00:24:55,495 --> 00:24:59,290
What you wanna do, just drop by
down on the tile and go for it?
234
00:24:59,540 --> 00:25:03,336
I actually had this counter in mind.
235
00:25:03,586 --> 00:25:09,300
- That would be very, very comfortable, yeah.
- It could be.
236
00:25:10,927 --> 00:25:17,517
Actually, I came in here to save you
from making a big mistake with that older guy.
237
00:25:17,767 --> 00:25:24,232
Really? So I could go on to a bigger one
with a young guy like yourself?
238
00:25:26,046 --> 00:25:27,735
Maybe.
239
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,574
- I have to get up early in the morning.
- What are you doing?
240
00:25:35,243 --> 00:25:39,539
Your friend was magnificent.
241
00:25:45,753 --> 00:25:49,507
You'll also be trained and evaluated
by civilian specialists.
242
00:25:49,757 --> 00:25:52,482
The civilians are hre because
they are our very best...
243
00:25:52,586 --> 00:25:54,554
source of information on enemy aircraft.
244
00:25:54,804 --> 00:26:00,434
One of the most qualified is our call sign
Charlie. She has a Ph.D. in astrophysics.
245
00:26:00,685 --> 00:26:03,896
And she's also a civilian contract,
so you do not salute her.
246
00:26:04,188 --> 00:26:06,280
But you better listen to
her, because the Pentagon...
247
00:26:06,384 --> 00:26:07,869
listens to her about your proficiency.
248
00:26:07,973 --> 00:26:11,362
All yours, Charlie.
249
00:26:11,612 --> 00:26:17,910
Hello. We will be dealing with F-5s
and A-4s as our MiG simulators.
250
00:26:18,161 --> 00:26:21,525
Now, then, as most of you
know, the F-5 doesn't have...
251
00:26:21,630 --> 00:26:24,125
the thrust-to-weight ratio of the MiG-28.
252
00:26:24,375 --> 00:26:29,005
And it doesn't bleed energy
below 300 knots like the MiG-28.
253
00:26:29,255 --> 00:26:34,886
However, the MiG-28 does have
a problem with its inverted flight tanks.
254
00:26:35,136 --> 00:26:38,306
It won't do a negative G push-over.
255
00:26:38,556 --> 00:26:44,103
The latest intelligence tells us
the most it will do is 1 negative...
256
00:26:44,353 --> 00:26:47,899
Excuse me, Lieutenant.
Is there something wrong?
257
00:26:48,149 --> 00:26:53,529
- Yes, ma'am. The data on the MiG is inaccurate.
- How's that, Lieutenant?
258
00:26:53,779 --> 00:26:58,743
- Well, I just happened to see a MiG-28...
- We, we. - Sorry, Goose.
259
00:26:58,993 --> 00:27:04,749
We happened to see a MiG-28
do a 4 G negative dive.
260
00:27:04,999 --> 00:27:07,668
Where did you see this?
261
00:27:07,877 --> 00:27:09,504
- That's classified.
- It's what?
262
00:27:10,275 --> 00:27:14,081
It's classified. I could tell you,
but then I'd have to kill you.
263
00:27:14,342 --> 00:27:17,303
Lieutenant, I have
Top Secret clearance.
264
00:27:17,553 --> 00:27:20,452
The Pentagon sees to it
that I know more than you.
265
00:27:22,266 --> 00:27:26,971
- Well, ma'am, it doesn't seem
so in this case now, does it?
266
00:27:27,075 --> 00:27:30,274
So, Lieutenant... where exactly were you?
267
00:27:30,483 --> 00:27:37,240
Well, we started up on his six when he pulled
through the clouds. I went above him.
268
00:27:37,490 --> 00:27:41,744
If you were directly above him,
how could you see him?
269
00:27:41,994 --> 00:27:45,706
- Because I was inverted.
- Bullshit.
270
00:27:45,957 --> 00:27:49,377
No, he was, man. It was a really great move.
He was inverted.
271
00:27:49,627 --> 00:27:54,841
You were in a 4 G inverted dive
with a MiG-28?
272
00:27:55,091 --> 00:27:58,010
- Yes, ma'am.
- At what range?
273
00:27:58,261 --> 00:27:59,419
About two metres?
274
00:27:59,523 --> 00:28:04,058
Well, it was actually about 1/2, I
think. I have a great Polaroid of it.
275
00:28:04,308 --> 00:28:07,812
- It was a nice picture.
- Lieutenant?
276
00:28:10,148 --> 00:28:15,194
- What were you doing there?
- Communicating. - Communicating.
277
00:28:15,444 --> 00:28:19,031
Keeping up foreign relations.
278
00:28:19,282 --> 00:28:23,703
- I was, you know, giving him the bird.
- You know, the finger.
279
00:28:23,953 --> 00:28:25,714
- I know the finger, Goose.
280
00:28:25,818 --> 00:28:29,125
I'm sorry, I hate it when
it does that. I'm sorry.
281
00:28:29,375 --> 00:28:33,129
- Excuse me.
- So you're the one?
282
00:28:33,379 --> 00:28:38,134
- Yes, ma'am.
- All right, we have a hop to take.
283
00:28:38,384 --> 00:28:43,806
The hard-deck on this hop will be 10,000 feet.
There'll be no engagement below that.
284
00:28:44,056 --> 00:28:45,766
Move it!
285
00:28:49,833 --> 00:28:51,189
Lieutenant!
286
00:28:53,733 --> 00:28:58,571
Okay, don't be late again.
You look great, honey.
287
00:28:58,821 --> 00:29:03,159
Lieutenant, why didn't you tell me
you were the famous MiG lnsulter?
288
00:29:03,409 --> 00:29:06,443
- Would it have made any difference?
- Not in the ladies' room, no.
289
00:29:06,548 --> 00:29:08,539
And what would've?
290
00:29:08,789 --> 00:29:11,967
I'm an instructor at this
school, I see 20 new hotshots...
291
00:29:12,071 --> 00:29:15,192
every eight weeks. Now, I'm
sure you can figure that out.
292
00:29:15,963 --> 00:29:20,968
Look, Lieutenant. I'd just really like
to hear about the MiG sometime.
293
00:29:22,470 --> 00:29:27,600
You've got security clearance.
You read about it.
294
00:29:32,396 --> 00:29:37,276
Maverick...
I'm curious.
295
00:29:37,527 --> 00:29:44,492
Who was covering Cougar while you
were showboating with this MiG?
296
00:29:44,742 --> 00:29:46,828
Cougar was doing just fine.
297
00:29:48,621 --> 00:29:52,039
Gentlemen, this is your first hop.
The jets you're flying against are...
298
00:29:52,143 --> 00:29:54,116
smaller and faster and more manoeuvreable.
299
00:29:54,220 --> 00:29:57,281
Just like the enemy MiGs. Clock
is ticking, and as of now...
300
00:29:57,385 --> 00:29:58,422
we are keeping score.
301
00:29:59,715 --> 00:30:04,095
- I lost him, Goose.
- Show me what you've got, kid.
302
00:30:05,117 --> 00:30:07,661
- I lost him.
- I'm looking. I'm looking.
303
00:30:09,955 --> 00:30:12,447
I got him, I got him.
He's on our tail, coming hard.
304
00:30:12,666 --> 00:30:14,126
I got him. Here we go.
305
00:30:27,431 --> 00:30:28,777
Alright, talk to me, Goose.
306
00:30:28,881 --> 00:30:31,914
He's still back there. He's closing
in on us. He's closing fast.
307
00:30:32,269 --> 00:30:34,229
You can run, kid, but you can't hide.
308
00:30:38,775 --> 00:30:42,195
All right, Jester,
I'll give you a run for your money here.
309
00:30:47,909 --> 00:30:50,329
Watch the mountains!
310
00:30:59,588 --> 00:31:03,488
I still got 'im, he's still back there.
Come on, Mav, do some of that pilot shit.
311
00:31:03,759 --> 00:31:05,364
Yeah. I got him.
312
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,108
- Come on, bring it right.
- I've had about enough of this shit.
313
00:31:22,361 --> 00:31:25,405
- When I hit the brakes, he'll fly right by.
- You're mine.
314
00:31:33,163 --> 00:31:35,123
Jesus Christ!
315
00:31:38,877 --> 00:31:42,547
- Let's see what you've got now, Jester.
- Ok, man. Let's turn and burn.
316
00:32:00,983 --> 00:32:05,362
- He's going vertical. So am l.
- We're going ballistic, man. Go get him!
317
00:32:14,517 --> 00:32:17,833
He's going for the hard-deck.
Let's get down there first and nail him, Mav.
318
00:32:18,083 --> 00:32:20,669
No way, Jester. You're mine.
319
00:32:36,727 --> 00:32:38,499
I've got you now!
320
00:32:41,690 --> 00:32:46,236
- Jester's dead.
- Jester's dead.
321
00:32:48,530 --> 00:32:52,200
Get your butts above the hard-deck
and return to base.
322
00:32:55,078 --> 00:32:58,248
Yes, sir!
323
00:33:03,003 --> 00:33:06,272
Tower, this is Ghost Rider requesting a fly-by.
324
00:33:06,376 --> 00:33:09,238
Negative, Ghost Rider. The pattern is full.
325
00:33:09,551 --> 00:33:11,911
No, no, Mav. This is not a good idea.
326
00:33:12,015 --> 00:33:14,931
Sorry, Goose... but it's time to buzz the tower.
327
00:33:26,443 --> 00:33:29,237
Goddamn son of a bitch!
328
00:33:33,429 --> 00:33:35,285
Great balls of fire.
329
00:33:39,164 --> 00:33:42,084
- Jester's dead.
- You won? Bullshit.
330
00:33:42,334 --> 00:33:45,149
- Didn't everybody?
- No, man. We got our butts kicked.
331
00:33:45,462 --> 00:33:47,964
30 seconds. We went like this,
he went like that...
332
00:33:48,215 --> 00:33:53,136
...I said to Hollywood, 'Where did he go?'
Hollywood said, 'Where did who go?'
333
00:33:53,387 --> 00:33:56,532
- And he's laughing at us right on
the radio, he's laughing at us.
334
00:33:56,637 --> 00:33:58,475
That was me laughing, dickhead. We won.
335
00:33:58,725 --> 00:34:03,230
- All right!
- They won too, man.
336
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,150
- That's not what I heard.
- No, we did. We got Jester.
337
00:34:07,401 --> 00:34:09,118
- Below the hard-deck doesn't count.
338
00:34:09,222 --> 00:34:11,530
Hard-deck my ass, we nailed that son of a bitch.
339
00:34:11,780 --> 00:34:14,262
- You guys really are cowboys.
- What's your problem, Kazansky?
340
00:34:16,806 --> 00:34:18,090
You're everyone's problem.
341
00:34:18,195 --> 00:34:21,331
That's because every time you go
up in the air, you're unsafe.
342
00:34:21,581 --> 00:34:27,379
- I don't like you because you're dangerous.
- That's right, lceman.
343
00:34:27,629 --> 00:34:29,631
I am dangerous.
344
00:34:32,801 --> 00:34:35,333
Maverick. You and Goose get
your butts outta that...
345
00:34:35,437 --> 00:34:37,472
flight gear and up to Viper's office, now!
346
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:45,731
Remember boys, no points
for second place.
347
00:34:45,981 --> 00:34:50,402
- You're a lot brighter than you look.
- You shut up. - Don't worry, don't worry.
348
00:34:50,652 --> 00:34:54,635
Two of your snot-nosed jockeys did a fly-by
at my tower at over 400 knots.
349
00:34:54,823 --> 00:34:58,493
I want somebody's butt, I
want it now, I've had it.
350
00:35:00,370 --> 00:35:05,167
Goddamn it, that's twice.
I want some butts!
351
00:35:05,834 --> 00:35:11,423
- Well, that'll just about cover the fly-bys.
- Follow me.
352
00:35:15,802 --> 00:35:21,058
Gentlemen. You had a hell of a first day.
353
00:35:24,478 --> 00:35:30,192
The hard-deck for this hop was
10,000 feet. You knew it. You broke it.
354
00:35:30,442 --> 00:35:37,741
You followed Commander Heatherly
below after he lost sight of you. Why?
355
00:35:37,991 --> 00:35:44,498
Sir, I had Commander Heatherly in my sights.
He saw me move in for the kill...
356
00:35:44,748 --> 00:35:47,675
...he then proceeded below the hard-deck.
357
00:35:47,779 --> 00:35:51,505
We weren't below 10,000 for
more than a few seconds.
358
00:35:51,755 --> 00:35:55,384
I had the shot.
There was no danger, so I took it.
359
00:35:56,843 --> 00:36:01,598
You took it,
and broke a major rule of engagement.
360
00:36:01,848 --> 00:36:07,771
Then you broke another one
with that circus stunt fly-by.
361
00:36:08,021 --> 00:36:11,037
Lieutenant Mitchell, Top Gun
rules of engagement exist...
362
00:36:11,141 --> 00:36:13,349
for your safety and for that of your team.
363
00:36:13,454 --> 00:36:15,779
They're not flexible, nor am l.
364
00:36:15,883 --> 00:36:19,741
Either obey them or you
are history. Is that clear?
365
00:36:21,952 --> 00:36:23,391
Yes, sir!
366
00:36:32,212 --> 00:36:33,651
Dismissed.
367
00:36:38,927 --> 00:36:44,349
I really enjoyed that, Mav,
thanks a lot. Holy shit.
368
00:36:47,728 --> 00:36:51,825
Maybe I could learn how to be a truck driver.
Mav, you got the number of that truck-driving
369
00:36:51,930 --> 00:36:54,200
school that was on TV, Truck
Master, something like this?
370
00:36:54,304 --> 00:36:54,985
I might need that.
371
00:36:55,235 --> 00:37:00,157
State in those reports says it all.
He's a wild card.
372
00:37:00,407 --> 00:37:04,202
Completely unpredictable.
373
00:37:04,453 --> 00:37:08,582
- He got you, didn't he?
- Yeah.
374
00:37:08,832 --> 00:37:13,670
Maverick. I flew with his old man.
375
00:37:17,716 --> 00:37:21,699
Tell me one thing... if
you had to go into battle,
376
00:37:21,887 --> 00:37:24,306
- would you want him with you?
- I don't know.
377
00:37:24,556 --> 00:37:28,310
I just don't know.
378
00:37:38,445 --> 00:37:41,573
- Still awake?
- Yeah.
379
00:37:44,660 --> 00:37:47,663
- What's up?
- Can't sleep.
380
00:37:50,082 --> 00:37:53,264
You kow, when I realised
we were going to Top Gun,
381
00:37:53,368 --> 00:37:56,421
all I could think about was getting that trophy.
382
00:37:56,672 --> 00:38:01,885
I've got to be straight with you, Mav.
Right now, I just hope we graduate.
383
00:38:04,554 --> 00:38:09,476
I got a family to think about.
I can't afford to blow this.
384
00:38:11,728 --> 00:38:16,149
I guess that fly-by
wasn't such a big hit, huh?
385
00:38:19,403 --> 00:38:21,387
Look, man, I know it's tough for you.
386
00:38:21,491 --> 00:38:24,741
The Academy rejected you because
you're Duke Mitchell's kid.
387
00:38:24,992 --> 00:38:28,328
You have to live with that reputation.
388
00:38:29,162 --> 00:38:33,125
But it's like everytime we go up there,
it's like you're flying against a ghost.
389
00:38:33,792 --> 00:38:37,587
It makes me nervous.
390
00:38:41,049 --> 00:38:46,847
You're the only family I've got.
I'm not gonna let you down. I promise.
391
00:38:56,023 --> 00:39:00,027
Get out of here.
392
00:39:14,541 --> 00:39:19,129
A rolling reversal
would work well in that situation.
393
00:39:19,379 --> 00:39:22,883
If I reversed on a hard cross, I could
immediately go to guns on him.
394
00:39:23,133 --> 00:39:28,493
But at that speed, it's too fast.
It's a little bit too aggressive.
395
00:39:29,368 --> 00:39:32,434
Too aggressive?
396
00:39:33,101 --> 00:39:37,147
Yeah, I guess when I see
something, I go right after it.
397
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,216
You didn't tell me who
you were the other night.
398
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,321
You didn't give me a chance,
did you? You deserved it.
399
00:39:45,989 --> 00:39:54,039
I know... but uh... you were tempted...
to ask me out for dinner.
400
00:39:54,289 --> 00:39:57,459
- No.
- No? - No.
401
00:39:58,210 --> 00:39:59,461
I don't date students.
402
00:40:08,762 --> 00:40:14,851
I can see it's dangerous for you.
But if the government trusts me...
403
00:40:15,102 --> 00:40:17,062
...maybe you could.
404
00:40:23,735 --> 00:40:27,114
It takes a lot more than just fancy flying.
405
00:40:40,585 --> 00:40:44,840
Crash and burn, huh, Mav?
406
00:40:46,758 --> 00:40:49,261
Slider...
407
00:40:51,013 --> 00:40:54,099
You stink.
408
00:41:02,899 --> 00:41:04,860
Let's go!
409
00:42:25,107 --> 00:42:29,361
Come on, Mav. Just one more game.
That evens it up.
410
00:42:29,611 --> 00:42:33,991
- I got some things to take care of.
- 'Take care of'? Just one more game.
411
00:42:34,241 --> 00:42:40,017
- Please? For me? - I'm sorry.
- You're sorry... Come on... For me?
412
00:43:13,155 --> 00:43:15,928
Damn it.
413
00:43:26,877 --> 00:43:28,920
Lieutenant?
414
00:43:34,217 --> 00:43:39,014
- What? No singing?
- Look, I'm...
415
00:43:39,306 --> 00:43:41,829
No apologies.
416
00:43:48,857 --> 00:43:52,299
If you don't mind, I'm... I'm
just gonna take a quick shower...
417
00:43:52,403 --> 00:43:54,071
while you're finishing up here.
418
00:43:56,365 --> 00:44:00,681
Yeah, I do mind. I'm hungry.
419
00:44:03,955 --> 00:44:07,626
And then I thought about it.
420
00:44:07,876 --> 00:44:12,339
I thought,
'You know, he's a smart guy.'
421
00:44:12,589 --> 00:44:18,512
'Why don't you just tell him
why you've got him here?'
422
00:44:20,389 --> 00:44:23,767
It's the MiG.
423
00:44:26,061 --> 00:44:32,776
The MiG. You're the only pilot
who's been up against a MiG-28.
424
00:44:34,194 --> 00:44:39,700
I'm trying for this big promotion.
If I get it, I won't be here much longer.
425
00:44:39,950 --> 00:44:43,912
Seems to me you've got it all figured out.
426
00:44:45,789 --> 00:44:50,919
Except you did forget the wine.
427
00:44:51,169 --> 00:44:53,463
Sorry.
428
00:44:53,714 --> 00:44:59,094
- You always get what you want?
- No, not always. Yeah, maybe.
429
00:44:59,344 --> 00:45:03,807
Then relax about the MiG.
430
00:45:16,903 --> 00:45:18,676
This music...
431
00:45:20,907 --> 00:45:22,722
An old friend?
432
00:45:24,536 --> 00:45:28,895
My folks loved it.
I haven't heard this in years.
433
00:45:30,709 --> 00:45:35,756
My mother used to call from her room
and have me play this over and over again...
434
00:45:36,006 --> 00:45:38,832
...I got so sick of it.
435
00:45:40,677 --> 00:45:47,184
But not her. She'd sit up there alone,
just listening for hours.
436
00:45:47,434 --> 00:45:53,732
Just listening.
She died shortly after him.
437
00:45:54,712 --> 00:45:57,507
What happened to your father?
438
00:46:02,199 --> 00:46:08,351
I guess I kinda figured with your security
clearance you'd know more about it than I do.
439
00:46:09,122 --> 00:46:11,687
Well, I didn't get that far.
440
00:46:14,670 --> 00:46:17,923
Well, that's a big mystery.
441
00:46:18,173 --> 00:46:22,886
He disappeared in an F-4,
November 5th, 1965.
442
00:46:25,472 --> 00:46:30,727
The stink of it was... he screwed up.
443
00:46:30,978 --> 00:46:35,941
No way.
My old man was a great fighter pilot.
444
00:46:39,236 --> 00:46:42,958
But who the hell knows?
It's all classified.
445
00:46:45,242 --> 00:46:49,746
- Somebody must know.
- Yeah, somebody knows everything.
446
00:46:50,205 --> 00:46:55,085
Is that why
you're always second best up there?
447
00:46:55,335 --> 00:46:57,233
You are direct, aren't you.
448
00:47:05,887 --> 00:47:09,933
I'm sorry I was late.
449
00:47:10,183 --> 00:47:16,148
- I'm sorry for being direct.
- No apologies.
450
00:47:16,398 --> 00:47:21,820
This is going to be complicated.
451
00:47:31,496 --> 00:47:35,792
- Where are you going?
- I'm gonna take a shower.
452
00:47:40,213 --> 00:47:45,218
Thank you. I enjoyed being here.
453
00:48:22,297 --> 00:48:26,134
It looks like you need another shower.
454
00:48:27,427 --> 00:48:29,075
Right.
455
00:48:34,851 --> 00:48:38,230
I'm gonna be honest with you.
456
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:43,568
Your MiG sighting
is really important to my work, but uh...
457
00:48:47,614 --> 00:48:52,703
I don't normally invite students
to my house. You're uh...
458
00:49:00,961 --> 00:49:04,506
But please understand,
I still have a job to do.
459
00:49:30,615 --> 00:49:36,079
I'm glad we got that straight.
460
00:49:51,553 --> 00:49:56,433
I told her how tough it is here. You know,
my ass dragging like an old tired dog.
461
00:49:56,683 --> 00:49:59,978
I told her you didn't even
have a woman here.
462
00:50:00,228 --> 00:50:03,940
She said, 'Oh, he probably
doesn't have 1, he's got 8.'
463
00:50:08,945 --> 00:50:14,493
- Hi!
- Daddy.
464
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:24,544
So, Maverick! Goose tells me you're
in love with one of your instructors.
465
00:50:24,732 --> 00:50:26,004
Is that right?
466
00:50:26,254 --> 00:50:32,490
I didn't tell her that. I can't believe
you said that. That was a secret.
467
00:50:39,017 --> 00:50:44,398
The bogey has good position right here.
Freeze frame. A moment of choice.
468
00:50:44,648 --> 00:50:48,944
The F-14 is defensive.
He has a chance to bug out right here.
469
00:50:49,194 --> 00:50:55,659
Better to retire and save your aircraft
than push a bad position.
470
00:50:55,909 --> 00:51:01,123
Charlie, jump in here any time. Now, you stay
in that diamond another three seconds...
471
00:51:01,373 --> 00:51:06,169
...the bogey's gonna blow you out in the sky.
You take a hard right, select zone five...
472
00:51:06,420 --> 00:51:11,341
...you can extend an escape.
You made a bad choice.
473
00:51:11,591 --> 00:51:18,765
- Charlie?
- Aircraft one performs a split S?
474
00:51:19,016 --> 00:51:23,186
That's the last thing you should do.
The MiG's right on your tail.
475
00:51:23,437 --> 00:51:27,295
Freeze there, please. The
MiG has you in his gunsight.
476
00:51:27,399 --> 00:51:30,027
What were you thinking at this point?
477
00:51:30,277 --> 00:51:34,781
You don't have time to think up there.
If you think, you're dead.
478
00:51:35,032 --> 00:51:39,730
That's a big gamble with a
$30-million dollar plane,
479
00:51:39,834 --> 00:51:40,787
Lieutenant.
480
00:51:46,084 --> 00:51:51,298
Unfortunately, the gamble worked.
The MiG never got a clean shot.
481
00:51:51,548 --> 00:51:58,138
Maverick makes an aggressive vertical
move here, comes over the top, and he
482
00:51:58,388 --> 00:52:03,769
The encounter was a victory, but I think
we have show it as an example of what not to do.
483
00:52:05,771 --> 00:52:08,065
Next.
484
00:52:08,315 --> 00:52:11,777
Gutsiest move I ever saw, man.
485
00:52:14,321 --> 00:52:19,576
Now then, this is a perfect example
of a textbook manoeuvre.
486
00:52:31,672 --> 00:52:33,382
Lieutenant?
487
00:52:46,269 --> 00:52:51,233
My review of your performance was
right on, in my professional opinion.
488
00:52:51,483 --> 00:52:53,172
I can't hear you.
489
00:53:13,714 --> 00:53:20,053
Jesus Christ! And you think I'm reckless!
When I fly, my crew and my plane come first.
490
00:53:20,304 --> 00:53:22,827
Well, I'm gonna finish
my sentence, Lieutenant.
491
00:53:22,931 --> 00:53:25,507
My review of your flight
performance was right on.
492
00:53:25,611 --> 00:53:27,196
- Is that right?
- That is right.
493
00:53:27,300 --> 00:53:28,916
But I held something back.
494
00:53:29,333 --> 00:53:33,056
I see some real genius in your flying,
Maverick, but I can't say that in there.
495
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:36,653
I was afraid that everyone in that
tacts training would see right through me.
496
00:53:36,903 --> 00:53:40,324
I just don't want anyone
to know that I've fallen for you.
497
00:55:26,638 --> 00:55:31,059
- Hey, Maverick? You hear about lce?
- What's that?
498
00:55:31,310 --> 00:55:35,168
- He won another one.
- Really? - Yeah.
499
00:55:35,689 --> 00:55:40,162
- I fell the need...
...the need for speed.
500
00:55:44,197 --> 00:55:50,151
Gentlemen, this is hop 19. Multiple aircraft,
multiple bogeys. Your training is half-over.
501
00:55:50,256 --> 00:55:54,750
The competltion for the Top Gun
trophy remains tight. First place, lceman.
502
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,410
Second place, Maverick.
Just two points behind.
503
00:55:58,514 --> 00:56:02,643
There they are. Three miles, left, 10 o'clock.
I don't think they see us yet.
504
00:56:02,747 --> 00:56:07,387
Ok, I see them. Two A-4s.
Left 10 o'clock level. Continue left turn.
505
00:56:16,188 --> 00:56:19,471
Good morning, gentlemen. The
temperature is 110 degrees...
506
00:56:19,575 --> 00:56:20,746
Holy shit! It's Viper!
507
00:56:20,851 --> 00:56:24,999
Viper's up here? Great. Oh, shit.
508
00:56:25,103 --> 00:56:28,127
Great. He's probably saying,
'Holy shit, it's Maverick and Goose.'
509
00:56:28,231 --> 00:56:30,223
Yeah, I'm sure he's saying that.
510
00:56:33,497 --> 00:56:37,292
- I've got my eye on the northern bogey.
- Roger, I've got the southern guy.
511
00:56:39,419 --> 00:56:42,339
Hollywood, you got the lead,
I'll cover you.
512
00:56:54,142 --> 00:56:56,436
Break now, Jester.
513
00:57:00,482 --> 00:57:03,346
Hollywood, we're losing Viper.
Let's just stay on Jester.
514
00:57:03,451 --> 00:57:04,288
Roger, I'm on 'im.
515
00:57:08,115 --> 00:57:11,540
Goose, find Viper. He's out there somewhere.
516
00:57:11,644 --> 00:57:15,372
Stay with Hollywood, Mav,
we're covering his wing.
517
00:57:15,622 --> 00:57:20,335
- Goose, there's Viper. Three o'clock low.
- Stay with Hollywood, Mav, we're his cover.
518
00:57:20,585 --> 00:57:24,631
- Don't you leave me, Mav.
- Hollywood, you're looking good.
519
00:57:24,881 --> 00:57:26,967
I'm going after Viper.
520
00:57:29,594 --> 00:57:32,556
- Goddamn you, Maverick!
- Mav, don't leave him.
521
00:57:32,806 --> 00:57:36,727
Goose, Hollywood's okay.
I want Viper.
522
00:57:39,229 --> 00:57:41,940
Stand by.
Viper's coming down.
523
00:57:48,238 --> 00:57:51,867
Holy shit. We're head-to-head.
I can't believe we're doing this.
524
00:58:05,797 --> 00:58:09,176
Rock and roll! Here's our chance,
it's a big one, Goose.
525
00:58:11,887 --> 00:58:14,973
Come on, goddamn it.
526
00:58:17,184 --> 00:58:19,978
Come on, keep coming.
527
00:58:23,106 --> 00:58:27,069
Okay, sidewinder missile selected.
Come on, baby.
528
00:58:27,319 --> 00:58:29,821
Come on, Come around.
That's it.
529
00:58:35,827 --> 00:58:43,460
- Jesus, this guy's good. Where's he going?
- Come on, come on. Keep coming.
530
00:58:46,380 --> 00:58:49,883
Come on, baby.
531
00:58:53,136 --> 00:58:55,931
Damn, this kid's good.
532
00:58:56,181 --> 00:58:59,768
He's too close for missiles.
I'm switching to guns.
533
00:59:02,020 --> 00:59:05,357
Come on, come on.
534
00:59:06,316 --> 00:59:09,111
Stick with it...
535
00:59:12,072 --> 00:59:16,118
- Hold it. Check our tail.
- Shit, there's Jester!
536
00:59:16,368 --> 00:59:21,248
Bingo, Maverick's dead.
You're out of there, kid.
537
00:59:21,498 --> 00:59:24,424
The Defence Department regrets
to inform you your sons...
538
00:59:24,528 --> 00:59:26,253
are dead because they were stupid.
539
00:59:26,774 --> 00:59:28,724
Great balls of fire.
540
00:59:28,828 --> 00:59:32,759
Knock it off, gentlemen.
Let's go home. Viper has the lead.
541
00:59:38,786 --> 00:59:43,645
- 30 seconds, Wolfman. I'm coming in.
- Shut up!
542
00:59:44,813 --> 00:59:49,568
That was some of the best flying I've seen yet.
Right up to the part where you got killed.
543
00:59:49,818 --> 00:59:53,342
You never, never leave your wingman.
544
00:59:59,536 --> 01:00:05,334
Maverick... It's not your flying,
it's your attitude.
545
01:00:06,710 --> 01:00:10,971
The enemy's dangerous, but
right now you're worse than...
546
01:00:11,076 --> 01:00:14,051
the enemy. You're dangerous and foolish.
547
01:00:14,301 --> 01:00:21,350
You may not like who's flying with you, they may
not like you... but whose side are you on?
548
01:00:29,066 --> 01:00:35,614
At least Viper got lceman before
he got us. We've still got a shot at it.
549
01:00:35,864 --> 01:00:41,953
That was stupid, I know better than that.
That will never happen again.
550
01:00:44,790 --> 01:00:45,999
I know...
551
01:00:51,463 --> 01:00:52,839
I know.
552
01:01:43,140 --> 01:01:47,561
Maverick, would you go fetch him.
Doesn't he ever embarrass you?
553
01:01:47,811 --> 01:01:53,817
- Goose? Hell no. Well, there was the time...
- Admiral's daughter. - What? !
554
01:01:54,380 --> 01:01:59,323
He told me all about the time
you went ballistic with Penny Benjamin.
555
01:01:59,573 --> 01:02:02,075
Did he? That's great...
556
01:02:02,326 --> 01:02:07,789
He tells me about all of them. How my
lil' angel Goose goes home early for church...
557
01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:10,796
- ...and you! You always go
home with the hot women.
558
01:02:10,901 --> 01:02:12,336
Alright. Thank you, Carole.
559
01:02:12,586 --> 01:02:17,924
I'm gonna go embarrass myself
with Goose for a while.
560
01:02:34,232 --> 01:02:39,196
I'd love to be able to warn you off about
Maverick, but I just love him to death.
561
01:02:40,697 --> 01:02:45,702
I've known Pete for a lot of years now and...
I'm telling you, one thing's for certain.
562
01:02:45,952 --> 01:02:51,145
- There are hearts breaking wide open
all over the world tonight. - Why?
563
01:02:51,291 --> 01:02:55,671
Because, unless you are a fool,
that boy is off the market.
564
01:02:55,921 --> 01:03:01,259
He is 100% prime-time in love with you.
565
01:03:01,510 --> 01:03:07,422
- Hey, Goose, you big stud. - That's me, honey.
- Take me to bed or lose me forever.
566
01:03:07,526 --> 01:03:09,455
Show me the way home, honey.
567
01:03:11,269 --> 01:03:13,563
Come on, brother, sing with the family.
568
01:03:45,887 --> 01:03:50,726
Maverick, you big stud...
569
01:03:50,976 --> 01:03:55,314
Take me to bed or lose me forever.
570
01:04:07,576 --> 01:04:10,996
Okay, gentlemen, this is hop 31.
Two weeks to graduation.
571
01:04:11,246 --> 01:04:14,791
The Top Gun trophy
is still up for grabs, so
572
01:04:58,043 --> 01:05:00,350
Well, it's bottom of the
night, the score is tied.
573
01:05:00,455 --> 01:05:01,630
It's time for the big one.
574
01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:06,927
- You up for this one, Maverick?
- Just a walk in the park, Cazansky.
575
01:05:09,888 --> 01:05:14,966
Contact. Multiple bogeys, 165. Two miles.
Looks like they're going away from us.
576
01:05:15,070 --> 01:05:18,730
- Oh, I see 'em. Right, two o'clock. I'm in.
- I'm in.
577
01:05:38,875 --> 01:05:42,295
That son of a bitch cut me off.
578
01:05:49,386 --> 01:05:55,465
- Come on. Jesus Christ, lce, take the shot.
- Come on, Ice. Get the hell out of there.
579
01:05:55,569 --> 01:05:59,271
I can't get the angle. I'm too close
for missiles. I'm switching to guns.
580
01:05:59,521 --> 01:06:01,794
Ice, fire or clear!
581
01:06:07,279 --> 01:06:10,701
Look at this! Jesus Christ,
I can take a shot right here.
582
01:06:10,805 --> 01:06:13,285
I need another 20 seconds and I've got him.
583
01:06:19,249 --> 01:06:21,075
I'm moving in. I've got the shot.
584
01:06:21,179 --> 01:06:23,649
Come on, Mav, let's get in there. Come on, Mav!
585
01:06:25,088 --> 01:06:27,302
Maverick's getting impatient.
Now, come on, take the shot.
586
01:06:27,406 --> 01:06:28,675
10 more seconds, then I've got 'im.
587
01:06:30,844 --> 01:06:33,906
Come on, get the hell out
of there. Let's do it, Mav.
588
01:06:34,011 --> 01:06:35,713
Ice, Come off my right. I'm in.
589
01:06:35,818 --> 01:06:38,685
- Five more seconds.
- Come off my right. I'm in.
590
01:06:38,935 --> 01:06:41,063
I'm off. Shit.
591
01:06:43,690 --> 01:06:46,360
We're in a jetwash. Shit!
592
01:06:49,529 --> 01:06:52,763
This is not good. Shit,
we've got a flame-out, Mav.
593
01:06:52,867 --> 01:06:55,327
Engine one is out... Engine two is out.
594
01:06:55,577 --> 01:06:58,580
I'm losing control. I can't control it!
595
01:07:02,834 --> 01:07:06,630
It's coupling up. This is not good!
596
01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:11,259
Mayday, mayday. Mav's in trouble.
He's in a flat spin heading out to sea!
597
01:07:14,221 --> 01:07:17,766
Altitude 8,000... 7,000...
598
01:07:18,016 --> 01:07:20,811
We're at 6,000!
599
01:07:22,562 --> 01:07:25,440
I can't reach the ejection handle!
600
01:07:27,609 --> 01:07:34,241
- You're gonna have to punch us out.
- I can't reach the ejection handle!
601
01:07:34,491 --> 01:07:37,995
- Eject...
- Watch the canopy!
602
01:07:54,594 --> 01:07:57,014
Goose... Oh, no!
603
01:08:00,684 --> 01:08:03,353
Oh, God.
604
01:08:50,734 --> 01:08:54,237
Sir, let go of him.
You've got to let him go, sir.
605
01:09:37,698 --> 01:09:41,410
- How are you doing?
- I'm all right.
606
01:09:43,745 --> 01:09:47,791
- Goose is dead.
- I know.
607
01:09:50,919 --> 01:09:54,652
You fly jets long enough,
something like this happens.
608
01:09:55,632 --> 01:09:59,970
He was my RIO, my responsibility.
609
01:10:02,055 --> 01:10:08,020
In my squadron in Vietnam,
we lost 8 of 18 aircraft. 10 men.
610
01:10:08,270 --> 01:10:14,526
The first one dies, you die too.
But there will be others.
611
01:10:14,776 --> 01:10:18,280
You can count on it.
612
01:10:18,530 --> 01:10:22,284
You've got to let him go.
613
01:10:23,493 --> 01:10:26,163
You've got to let him go.
614
01:10:43,305 --> 01:10:47,351
I think maybe it was my fault.
615
01:10:47,601 --> 01:10:49,895
I don't know.
616
01:10:51,188 --> 01:10:55,150
I don't know what the hell went wrong.
617
01:10:55,400 --> 01:11:00,364
I'd like to help. I know it's difficult.
618
01:11:05,952 --> 01:11:08,518
God, I want him back.
619
01:11:14,294 --> 01:11:16,818
I'll be here if you need me, okay?
620
01:13:10,202 --> 01:13:13,705
God, he loved flying with you, Maverick.
621
01:13:31,306 --> 01:13:36,770
He would have flown anyway...
without you.
622
01:13:37,020 --> 01:13:41,108
He'd've hated it,
but he would have done it.
623
01:14:01,753 --> 01:14:05,008
We find that the F-14 flatspin
was induced by the...
624
01:14:05,112 --> 01:14:08,176
disruption of air flow
into the starboard engine.
625
01:14:08,739 --> 01:14:12,347
This disruption stalled the engine...
626
01:14:12,597 --> 01:14:17,717
...which produced enough yaw rate
to induce a spin...
627
01:14:17,821 --> 01:14:20,647
...which was unrecoverable.
628
01:14:20,897 --> 01:14:23,999
There was no way Lieutenant
Mitchell could see or avoid...
629
01:14:24,104 --> 01:14:26,445
the jetwash which produced the engine stall.
630
01:14:26,695 --> 01:14:29,512
Therefore, the Board of lnquiry
finds Lieutenant Mitchell...
631
01:14:29,617 --> 01:14:31,908
was not at fault in the
accident of 29th of July.
632
01:14:32,159 --> 01:14:35,183
Lieutenant Mitchell's record will
be cleared of this incident.
633
01:14:35,287 --> 01:14:38,707
Lieutenant Mitchell's restored to
flight status without further delay.
634
01:14:39,875 --> 01:14:42,294
These proceedings are closed.
635
01:14:50,844 --> 01:14:53,910
Get him up flying, soon.
636
01:15:19,998 --> 01:15:21,375
Come on, kid, come on. Get in there. Engage.
637
01:15:21,562 --> 01:15:26,588
Alright, you've got a bogey at two o'clock low,
Maverick. You got the angle, piece of cake now.
638
01:15:30,300 --> 01:15:33,428
Take the shot, kid.
Take the shot.
639
01:15:34,096 --> 01:15:36,828
You can engage any time, Maverick.
640
01:15:46,942 --> 01:15:51,165
- Hey! Where the hell are you going?
- It's not good. It doesn't look good.
641
01:15:51,269 --> 01:15:54,512
What do you mean, 'it doesn't look good'?
It doesn't get to look any better than that.
642
01:16:06,962 --> 01:16:11,529
Hey, man. We coulda had him...
Hey! We coulda had him, man!
643
01:16:13,218 --> 01:16:18,849
I'll fire when I'm goddamn
good and ready. You got that?
644
01:16:36,700 --> 01:16:41,955
- He can't get back in the saddle,
he won't engage.
645
01:16:42,205 --> 01:16:44,896
You know, he just might not make it back.
646
01:16:47,794 --> 01:16:49,567
Keep sending him up.
647
01:17:08,899 --> 01:17:10,525
Mitchell?
648
01:17:11,777 --> 01:17:14,425
I'm sorry about Goose.
649
01:17:17,574 --> 01:17:19,576
Everybody liked him.
650
01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:27,000
I'm sorry.
651
01:17:46,103 --> 01:17:48,105
Hi, it's Wolfman.
652
01:17:51,316 --> 01:17:53,235
Maverick just quit.
653
01:18:15,757 --> 01:18:17,175
Excuse me...
654
01:18:20,408 --> 01:18:23,307
- May l?
- Please.
655
01:18:32,024 --> 01:18:37,446
I'll have what he's having.
Hemlock, is it?
656
01:18:37,696 --> 01:18:40,198
Ice water.
657
01:18:44,036 --> 01:18:46,413
You weren't gonna say goodbye?
658
01:18:48,332 --> 01:18:53,441
I heard you got that job in Washington.
Congratulations.
659
01:18:54,525 --> 01:19:00,010
Thanks. But I wasn't gonna leave
without saying goodbye.
660
01:19:03,972 --> 01:19:08,477
- It's good to see you.
- Thanks.
661
01:19:10,145 --> 01:19:16,485
Where are you going?
You don't even have a ticket, do you?
662
01:19:16,735 --> 01:19:20,958
Listen, I've seen all the evidence,
and it's not your responsibility.
663
01:19:22,011 --> 01:19:23,262
It's not your fault.
664
01:19:24,826 --> 01:19:28,580
You're one of the best pilots in the Navy.
665
01:19:28,830 --> 01:19:33,251
What you do up there... It's dangerous.
666
01:19:33,502 --> 01:19:38,507
- But you've got to go on.
- You don't understand.
667
01:19:39,633 --> 01:19:45,013
When I first met you,
you were larger than life.
668
01:19:46,932 --> 01:19:49,434
Look at you.
669
01:19:50,102 --> 01:19:53,226
You're not gonna be happy
unless you're going Mach 2...
670
01:19:53,330 --> 01:19:55,472
with your hair on fire, you know that.
671
01:19:55,576 --> 01:19:58,276
No, that's over. It's just over.
672
01:19:58,527 --> 01:20:02,385
To be the best of the best means
you make mistakes and then...
673
01:20:02,489 --> 01:20:05,023
you go on, it's just like the rest of us.
674
01:20:05,127 --> 01:20:07,536
You don't think I know that?
675
01:20:09,559 --> 01:20:11,665
I'm here to help.
676
01:20:12,645 --> 01:20:20,424
Look, thank you. But if I'd wanted help,
really... I would have asked for it.
677
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:28,849
So, I'm too late.
678
01:20:30,559 --> 01:20:32,269
You've already left.
679
01:20:34,396 --> 01:20:36,773
You didn't learn a damn thing,
did you?
680
01:20:37,587 --> 01:20:38,942
Except to quit.
681
01:20:42,946 --> 01:20:46,377
You've got that manoeuvre down
real well.
682
01:20:53,457 --> 01:20:55,615
So long, Pete Mitchell.
683
01:21:21,485 --> 01:21:25,416
Oh, hi, Maverick, come on in.
How are you doing?
684
01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:27,068
- Good
- Yeah? Sure you're feeling okay?
685
01:21:27,173 --> 01:21:28,111
- Fine.
- Great.
686
01:21:28,215 --> 01:21:31,566
- Jamie, come on. Can I get you a
drink or anything else like that?
687
01:21:31,670 --> 01:21:32,329
No, thank you.
688
01:21:32,579 --> 01:21:34,435
- Ok, why don't you just uh...
- Thank you very much.
689
01:21:34,539 --> 01:21:37,108
- Make yourself comfortable, 'cuz
Mike will be right down, ok?
690
01:21:37,212 --> 01:21:37,751
Ok. Thank you.
691
01:21:56,979 --> 01:22:01,546
I flew with your old man.
VF-51, the Oriskany.
692
01:22:04,319 --> 01:22:08,740
You're a lot like he was.
Only better...
693
01:22:09,783 --> 01:22:11,243
...and worse.
694
01:22:12,869 --> 01:22:16,873
He was a natural heroic son of a bitch,
that man.
695
01:22:20,460 --> 01:22:22,921
So he did do it right.
696
01:22:26,508 --> 01:22:29,073
Yeah, he did it right.
697
01:22:38,645 --> 01:22:43,421
Is that why you fly the way you do?
Trying to prove something?
698
01:22:45,193 --> 01:22:47,529
Yeah, your old man did it right.
699
01:22:49,156 --> 01:22:53,285
What I'm about to tell you is classified.
It could end my career.
700
01:22:53,535 --> 01:22:56,705
We were in the worst dogfight ever
dreamed of.
701
01:22:56,955 --> 01:23:00,959
There were... bogeys like fireflies
all over the sky.
702
01:23:02,899 --> 01:23:05,589
His F-4 was hit, he was wounded,
but he could have made it back.
703
01:23:05,797 --> 01:23:09,926
He stayed in it,
saved three planes before he bought it.
704
01:23:12,262 --> 01:23:15,556
- How come I never heard that before?
705
01:23:15,660 --> 01:23:20,312
The battle occurred over
the wrong line on some map.
706
01:23:20,562 --> 01:23:24,191
- So you were there?
- I was there.
707
01:23:25,379 --> 01:23:27,194
What's on your mind?
708
01:23:29,279 --> 01:23:31,156
My options, sir.
709
01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:36,328
Simple.
First, you've acquired enough points...
710
01:23:36,474 --> 01:23:39,289
...to show up tomorrow and graduate
with your Top Gun class.
711
01:23:40,394 --> 01:23:41,646
Or you could quit.
712
01:23:42,959 --> 01:23:47,172
There'll be no disgrace. That spin was hell,
it would have shook me up.
713
01:23:47,422 --> 01:23:51,468
- So you think I should quit?
- I didn't say that.
714
01:23:52,344 --> 01:23:55,658
The simple fact is, you
feel responsible for Goose.
715
01:23:55,762 --> 01:23:57,954
And you have a confidence problem.
716
01:23:59,351 --> 01:24:02,521
I'm not gonna sit here and blow sunshine
up your ass, Lieutenant.
717
01:24:02,771 --> 01:24:07,234
A good pilot is compelled
to always evaluate what's happened...
718
01:24:07,484 --> 01:24:10,362
...so he can apply what he's learned.
719
01:24:11,405 --> 01:24:15,575
Up there, we've got to push it.
That's our job.
720
01:24:18,120 --> 01:24:22,582
It's your option, Lieutenant.
All yours.
721
01:24:33,844 --> 01:24:38,265
Sorry to bother you on a Sunday, sir, but
thank you very much for your time.
722
01:24:38,432 --> 01:24:41,382
No problem. Good luck.
723
01:25:29,733 --> 01:25:34,154
- Gentlemen...
- Where's Maverick?
724
01:25:34,404 --> 01:25:40,035
- I don't know where he is.
- You know what he's planning to do?
725
01:25:41,203 --> 01:25:44,310
It's got to be hard on the guy,
though, you know.
726
01:26:15,153 --> 01:26:18,198
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
727
01:26:19,658 --> 01:26:23,370
- Congratulations.
- Thanks, Mav. - Sir.
728
01:26:25,956 --> 01:26:32,045
Gentlemen, I hate to break up the party
before it really gets out of hand...
729
01:26:32,295 --> 01:26:37,384
Some of you have to depart immediately.
We have a crisis situation.
730
01:26:37,634 --> 01:26:39,866
- Ice, Slider...
- Yo.
731
01:26:40,491 --> 01:26:42,034
- Hollywood, Wolfman.
- Yes, sir.
732
01:26:43,765 --> 01:26:47,102
- Maverick.
- Sir.
733
01:26:50,188 --> 01:26:55,694
Maverick, you'll get your RIO
when you get to the ship. And if you don't...
734
01:26:55,944 --> 01:27:00,198
...give me a call. I'll fly with you.
735
01:27:12,794 --> 01:27:16,618
Gentlemen, this is bull's eye. The
communication ship SS Layton has...
736
01:27:16,722 --> 01:27:19,770
become disabled and has wandered
into foreign territory.
737
01:27:19,874 --> 01:27:23,972
A rescue operation is to begin
within the hour. Your mission is...
738
01:27:24,076 --> 01:27:26,224
to give air support to that rescue.
739
01:27:26,370 --> 01:27:29,581
There are MiGs in the area,
and tensions are high.
740
01:27:29,685 --> 01:27:32,960
If you witness a hostile
act, you will return fire.
741
01:27:33,815 --> 01:27:36,369
Those MIGs carry the Exocet anti-ship missile.
742
01:27:36,473 --> 01:27:39,196
They can fire that missile
from a 100 miles away.
743
01:27:39,446 --> 01:27:45,421
Gentlemen, this is the real thing.
This is what you've been trained for.
744
01:27:45,525 --> 01:27:50,957
You are America's best. Make us proud.
Ice... Hollywood, sector two.
745
01:27:51,208 --> 01:27:55,253
Maverick, you back them up with Merlin
on ready five.
746
01:27:55,504 --> 01:27:58,799
- Yes, sir.
- Rise.
747
01:28:00,842 --> 01:28:03,804
Excuse me, sir. This is not personal.
748
01:28:04,054 --> 01:28:06,974
But with regard to Maverick...
is he the best pilot to..?
749
01:28:07,182 --> 01:28:10,102
- I know what's on your mind,
Cazansky, just get on it.
750
01:29:29,097 --> 01:29:32,476
You've got a pair of bogeys,
12 o'clock, 15 miles.
751
01:29:32,726 --> 01:29:36,583
Voodoo One, Voodoo One. 090,
radar contact 15 miles.
752
01:29:36,687 --> 01:29:38,440
They're doing 500 knots.
753
01:29:38,690 --> 01:29:40,525
Roger, that's your bogey.
754
01:29:43,487 --> 01:29:46,198
Dead ahead, 15 miles,
airspeed of 600 knots.
755
01:29:55,165 --> 01:29:59,127
They're at 15,000 feet now,
dead ahead, 10 miles.
756
01:29:59,378 --> 01:30:03,590
800 knots. Dead ahead now, eight miles.
757
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:09,012
- Wood, you got 'em? - Not yet, I can't see 'em.
- They must be close. I'm getting a hard-on.
758
01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:18,646
Ok, Wood, I'm taking the
lead. Let's identify 'em.
759
01:30:18,750 --> 01:30:22,620
Roger, Ice. You got the lead, I'm
on your leftside, a little low.
760
01:30:22,943 --> 01:30:26,029
- Maverick's up and ready in alert five.
- Good, good.
761
01:30:28,699 --> 01:30:32,911
My bogey's still locked up.
He's drifting to the left.
762
01:30:33,370 --> 01:30:35,326
Still manoeuvring, course 090.
763
01:30:35,430 --> 01:30:40,085
Ok, Wood. Let's bring it to the right,
and we'll get a better angle on 'im.
764
01:30:49,344 --> 01:30:52,766
Ice, we've got a problem here.
Now I have four aircraft on radar,
765
01:30:52,871 --> 01:30:54,850
not 1 pair, 2 pairs. Repeat, 4 bogeys.
766
01:30:55,100 --> 01:30:57,582
Wood, we've got four bogeys.
767
01:30:59,604 --> 01:31:02,086
- Wrong, make that five!
- There's five, sir.
768
01:31:02,190 --> 01:31:04,380
- That's five?
- Yes, sir.
769
01:31:05,902 --> 01:31:09,072
- Oh, shit!
- He's got a radar lock on us.
770
01:31:11,575 --> 01:31:14,077
Get out of there, Hollywood!
Get outta there, goddammit.
771
01:31:23,170 --> 01:31:28,508
I'm hit. We're coming apart.
I can't control it! We're going down.
772
01:31:28,759 --> 01:31:31,678
Wood's been hit. Wood's been hit!
773
01:31:31,928 --> 01:31:35,182
Voodoo One, Wood's been hit.
We've lost Hollywood!
774
01:31:35,432 --> 01:31:38,602
- Repeat, we've lost Hollywood.
- Launch Maverick on Alert 5.
775
01:31:38,852 --> 01:31:43,899
Get a bearing on Hollywood and Wolfman.
And launch the rescue helicopter immediately.
776
01:32:09,716 --> 01:32:14,221
- Iceman, what's your position?
- 090 at 180 miles.
777
01:32:14,471 --> 01:32:19,059
- They're coming in left.
- Three MiGs dead ahead, coming on the left side
778
01:32:21,228 --> 01:32:24,043
I'm going after them.
I'm bringing it around to the left.
779
01:32:26,191 --> 01:32:30,612
We have four on our tail.
That makes six of them!
780
01:32:35,867 --> 01:32:41,039
- He's firing. Break right.
- This is Voodoo One. We are defensive.
781
01:32:41,289 --> 01:32:42,845
Launch the alert fiighters!
782
01:32:42,949 --> 01:32:45,836
Where are they? - 160 miles
and closing in fast, sir.
783
01:32:46,086 --> 01:32:47,754
Ready Willard and Simkin.
784
01:32:50,882 --> 01:32:53,802
Maverick supersonic.
I'll be there in 30 seconds.
785
01:32:53,906 --> 01:32:54,845
Where are you at?
786
01:32:55,053 --> 01:32:56,930
Show up here, I'm engaged with
5, repeat 5. I'm in deep shit.
787
01:32:59,308 --> 01:33:04,271
- What about Willard and Simkin?
- We can't launch any aircraft yet, sir.
788
01:33:04,521 --> 01:33:05,914
- How long?
- It'll take 10 minutes.
789
01:33:06,018 --> 01:33:08,984
Bullshit! 10 minutes! This thing will
be over in two minutes! Get on it.
790
01:33:11,695 --> 01:33:15,615
One MiG 12 o'clock high...
Watch your back!
791
01:33:21,621 --> 01:33:26,209
- Break right!
- Shit, that was close.
792
01:33:26,460 --> 01:33:29,104
Maverick, get your butt down here,
what the hell are you doing?
793
01:33:29,208 --> 01:33:30,318
Come on, kid. Hang in there.
794
01:33:32,257 --> 01:33:34,405
Jesus Christ!
795
01:33:36,011 --> 01:33:38,639
Maverick, how about some help?
Engage, goddammit!
796
01:33:40,349 --> 01:33:42,038
Maverick, we've got a
MiG on our tail.
797
01:33:45,583 --> 01:33:46,730
Watch out!
798
01:33:49,232 --> 01:33:52,027
Sir, we just flew right
through his jetwash!
799
01:33:53,737 --> 01:33:56,531
Get control!
800
01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:08,669
- Good recovery, Mav.
- Okay, let's get in there, we gotta help lce.
801
01:34:08,919 --> 01:34:12,600
Let's get back in the game.
Come on! Get in there, Maverick!
802
01:34:12,704 --> 01:34:13,674
No, it's no good.
803
01:34:16,718 --> 01:34:22,119
- Goddamn it. Maverick's disengaging.
- I knew it. Shit! - Goddammit, Maverick!
804
01:34:25,060 --> 01:34:28,960
- Get in there, Maverick, come on.
- Maverick! What the hell are you doing?
805
01:34:29,231 --> 01:34:31,410
Maverick, get in there, for chrissake!
- Talk to me, Goose...
806
01:34:31,514 --> 01:34:33,585
Ice is in trouble! Come
on, get in there, Maverick!
807
01:34:33,689 --> 01:34:36,467
Ice won't last down there alone,
get in the fight, for God's sake...
808
01:34:36,676 --> 01:34:37,510
Talk to me, Goose.
809
01:34:37,698 --> 01:34:40,200
Maverick!
810
01:34:42,411 --> 01:34:44,267
Maverick's re-engaging, sir.
811
01:34:49,876 --> 01:34:52,911
- I can't get him off my tail.
- Ice, I've got your MiG dead ahead.
812
01:34:53,015 --> 01:34:54,381
I got 'im dead ahead.
813
01:34:55,966 --> 01:34:59,886
I got tone. Firing!
814
01:35:10,272 --> 01:35:14,057
- Where are they?
- 155 miles.
815
01:35:14,161 --> 01:35:16,585
Two MiGs dead ahead,
closer, 800 miles an hour.
816
01:35:16,690 --> 01:35:19,114
I see them. I'm gonna take
them on the left side.
817
01:35:21,033 --> 01:35:23,389
Oh, my God.
818
01:35:24,911 --> 01:35:27,852
Ice is right below us,
he's got a MiG on his tail.
819
01:35:29,875 --> 01:35:32,544
He's firing. Break left!
820
01:35:34,838 --> 01:35:37,716
He overshot!
821
01:35:37,966 --> 01:35:39,947
Coming in, lce. Coming in.
822
01:35:42,241 --> 01:35:44,243
I got two MiGs, dead ahead.
823
01:35:45,265 --> 01:35:47,976
I got 'im, Mav.
One MiG passing between us.
824
01:35:51,313 --> 01:35:55,421
You've got a MiG on your left.
He's gonna fire!
825
01:36:03,116 --> 01:36:06,161
Check the guy to the north!
826
01:36:08,538 --> 01:36:11,249
Banking left.
827
01:36:13,001 --> 01:36:17,464
- There he is. Get him, lce!
- Okay, you guys, I'm coming in.
828
01:36:21,927 --> 01:36:24,909
Maverick! We got a MiG's coming
round on our tail, we gotta get outta here!
829
01:36:25,055 --> 01:36:26,212
I can't leave lce.
830
01:36:26,317 --> 01:36:29,380
He's still coming around,
he's gonna get behind us!
831
01:36:29,484 --> 01:36:31,019
I'm not leaving my wingman.
832
01:36:33,897 --> 01:36:37,570
I'm on his tail. I'm going for
it. I'm going for the shot...
833
01:36:37,674 --> 01:36:39,236
right now. Roger, engaged!
834
01:36:41,947 --> 01:36:46,326
- I've got radar lock.
- I'm taking the shot. Fire!
835
01:36:51,206 --> 01:36:55,533
- Bingo! - Watch it, sucker, yeah!
- Ice, watch out. There's a MiG to your right.
836
01:36:55,638 --> 01:36:56,670
He's firing!
837
01:36:57,963 --> 01:37:04,177
- I'm hit. We're hit in the right engine.
- I'm shutting it down.
838
01:37:09,453 --> 01:37:11,143
Coming in, lce.
Coming in.
839
01:37:14,604 --> 01:37:17,776
Ice, that bogey's still behind
you. I'm manoeuvring for a shot.
840
01:37:17,881 --> 01:37:19,568
Stay with him, Mav, Stay with him!
841
01:37:19,672 --> 01:37:23,050
- Take the shot, nail him, nail him!
- Shit. Ice, I can't get a tone.
842
01:37:23,155 --> 01:37:25,303
Shoot, Maverick!
I can't get him off my tail.
843
01:37:29,536 --> 01:37:32,956
- Maverick, we're hit! We're hit again again!
- We're okay.
844
01:37:33,206 --> 01:37:36,001
Ice, on the count of three,
break hard right.
845
01:37:36,251 --> 01:37:40,401
Three... two... one...
break right!
846
01:37:44,155 --> 01:37:45,615
Firing!
847
01:37:48,639 --> 01:37:53,174
- Damn it, I missed.
- Don't let him go. Keep on him, Mav, keep on him.
848
01:37:53,279 --> 01:37:57,283
I got him. I got him.
Here comes the shot.
849
01:38:02,569 --> 01:38:04,696
Strike three.
850
01:38:05,864 --> 01:38:08,269
- Maverick, move. There's a MiG on your tail.
851
01:38:08,373 --> 01:38:11,323
We got a problem here, we've
only got one missile left.
852
01:38:11,427 --> 01:38:13,841
- Approaching, 110 miles, sir.
- Goddammit.
853
01:38:13,945 --> 01:38:16,625
I got him, I got him.
He's right on us, he's on our tail.
854
01:38:24,633 --> 01:38:26,322
We haven't lost him,
he's still with us.
855
01:38:30,347 --> 01:38:34,393
- What're you doing, you're slowing down!
- I'm bringing him in closer, Merlin.
856
01:38:34,518 --> 01:38:35,435
You gonna do what? !
857
01:38:40,607 --> 01:38:42,014
This is it, Maverick.
858
01:38:42,118 --> 01:38:45,112
I'm gonna hit the brakes, he'll fly right by us.
859
01:38:49,074 --> 01:38:50,325
Now!
860
01:38:55,372 --> 01:38:57,708
I've got a good lock. Firing.
861
01:39:01,628 --> 01:39:03,964
Strike four!
862
01:39:07,676 --> 01:39:12,577
Mustang, this is Voodoo Three.
Remaining MiGs are bugging out.
863
01:39:26,403 --> 01:39:32,305
- Mustang, this is Maverick, requesting fly-by.
- Negative, Ghostrider. The pattern is full.
864
01:39:34,703 --> 01:39:37,560
Excuse me, is there something
I should know about?
865
01:39:56,141 --> 01:39:58,810
Goddamn that guy.
866
01:40:53,949 --> 01:40:56,013
You!
867
01:40:58,120 --> 01:41:01,227
You are still dangerous.
868
01:41:04,543 --> 01:41:07,358
But you can be my wingman anytime.
869
01:41:08,130 --> 01:41:11,133
Bullshit. You can be mine.
870
01:42:03,060 --> 01:42:04,686
- Maverick?
- Sir!
871
01:42:05,437 --> 01:42:09,180
You're on the front pages
of all the English-speaking world.
872
01:42:09,285 --> 01:42:11,506
Even though the other side
denies the incident, congratulations.
873
01:42:11,631 --> 01:42:12,913
Thank you, sir.
874
01:42:13,017 --> 01:42:15,492
They gave you your choice of
duty, son. Anything, anywhere.
875
01:42:15,596 --> 01:42:16,615
Do you believe that shit?
876
01:42:16,928 --> 01:42:18,283
Where do you think you want to go?
877
01:42:19,242 --> 01:42:22,402
I thought of being an instructor, sir.
878
01:42:23,445 --> 01:42:24,331
Top Gun? !
879
01:42:25,321 --> 01:42:26,135
Yes, sir.
880
01:42:26,854 --> 01:42:28,189
God help us!
881
01:43:48,248 --> 01:43:50,542
Hello, Pete Mitchell.
882
01:43:54,254 --> 01:43:58,905
I heard the best of the best
were gonna be back here, so...
883
01:44:03,889 --> 01:44:05,995
This could be complicated.
884
01:44:07,517 --> 01:44:12,147
You know,
on the first one, I crashed and burned.
885
01:44:13,190 --> 01:44:14,504
And the second?
886
01:44:21,740 --> 01:44:23,408
I don't know.
887
01:44:23,513 --> 01:44:25,202
But uh...
888
01:44:26,359 --> 01:44:28,851
...it's looking good so far.
889
01:45:26,596 --> 01:45:30,767
