    I’m an airline pilot and I saw the old movie when I was 10 years old now 30 years later it was so great to see the new one pay great tribute to the beautiful f-14 Tomcat. It is the heart and soul of Top Gun and inspired me to do what I do today. No man made object can surpass it. My teenage girls aren’t interested in becoming aviators but they love these movies and I went to a museum to show them the Tomcat and they were amazed.

    Just to clarify, Mach 10 and 10 G are two very different things. Mach 10 is ten times the speed of sound roughly 7600 miles per hour. 10G is 10 times the force of gravity, which happens under extreme, sudden changes in direction, such as what is basically beyond sustainable loads for most aircraft, even military fighters. If you weigh 200 pounds, at 10G it feels like 2000 lbs. They could be made to handle more, but the pilot cannot. Typical limits are 7 to 9G. The fact that 10 was used in both the speed and G loads in this story was coincidental. Rooster wasn't out of ammunition, he was out of flares for self-defense. He still had missiles for air-to-air.

      They have some safety margins also. I've heard the F-15 for example can take about 13G (9G x 1,5 margin) without theoretically shortening life span of the structure. But anything over that will gradually degrade it. I dont think there is a physical G-imiter on that plane either other than you'll get the usual warning within the safety margin at 9G.

      Corrosion and metal fatigue takes its toll on an airframe. Salt is very corrosive, and the Navy obviously operates in a salty environment. Catapult launches and arrested recoveries (controlled crashes), in addition to the operational stresses placed upon the aircraft, has historically required special maintenance, repair, and often replacement of stressed areas of structure, to extend the life of the platform.

    Top Gun: Maverick is a masterpiece of a film. I watched it twice at the theaters with my Dad. What makes this film so great is that this movie was made after almost 36 years and this sequel definitely lived up to its expectation as it was so beautifully done with the music, the story, the dialogues, the plane flying sequences, the writing etc. Shoutout to Lady Gaga, Hanz Zimmer and One Republic for doing a fantastic job with the music. Tom Cruise never gets old as he gave another iconic performance as he always does in most of his films. The whole cast was great including Miles Teller, Monica Barbaro, Glen Powell, Danny Ramirez, Val Kilmer, Bashir Slahuddin, Jon Hamm, Jennifer Connelly, Charles Parnell, Lewis Pullman, Jay Ellis etc. Loved your reactions/analysis, take care, enjoy life, stay healthy and have a great one.

    Best sequel of 2022.
    #1 movie of the decade.
    The 2nd film to gross over $1 billion in the movie theatre re-booming during Covid-19.
    Tom Cruise's biggest movie ever.
    A great story with so much nostagia of the original.
    The director, Joseph Kosinski has worked with Cruise before on the movie, Obilvion (2013).
    To be made and be made as real as possible makes this a great piece of work.
    Seeing Val Kilmer as Iceman again was so heartwarming, especially with knowing what he's really gone through.
    Top Gun has the longest running video game series, based on an film ever (1986-2010).
    The 18th and final game on PS3 subtitled "Hard Lock" (2010) and the plot is set years after the first film.
    Maverick as an instructor to a new generation of pilots and his best student, Lance Webb aka Spider
    taking on an elite special mission (predating the movie's own sequel).

    Tom Cruise was flying his actual airplane at the end and during the final fight scene. That was also his personal jet. The only CGI used were the missiles and the CGI mesh used to make toms plane look like an F14. During the training missions and the actual mission. They were actually in F18s and Blue angles stunt pilots were flying while the actors sat in the back and it was filmed to look like they were flying but they were still in those jets none the less.

    Such an amazing reaction and such a great movie! Great job ladies!
    The amusing thing for me that almost no one seems to get is that Hangman is Maverick as he would have been if he had been flying one of the typical single-seat fighters instead of the two-seat F-14s used in the original Top Gun. The main thing that kept Maverick from being what Hangman was is that Mav always had Goose, who was his conscience in some ways, riding brakes on Mav's worst impulses and making them not so bad. Mav was responsible to and for Goose, and since Goose was his only family Mav usually held himself in check so he wouldn't let Goose down. Hangman didn't have a back seater to be responsible to and for, so he could go all out to prove he was the best he could be and better than everyone else, which justly earned him his callsign: because he'd always hang you out to dry to prove you weren't as good as he was. Luckily, and thankfully, Hangman learned the important lesson about teamwork through Mav, who uniquely understood Hangman's driven personality. Hangman's character development was a very well done part of the movie too.
    In an early script, Hangman was to be Ice's son. I'm glad they scrapped that.
    In the F-18 scenes, professional military pilots were doing the actual flying, but the back seat cockpits were set up to look like the real thing. The tech advances for getting us inside the cockpit with the actor were amazing! And the actors had additional duties to their usual acting as they had to test and make sure the cameras were set and focused properly, that their makeup was good, and that the shots were as near perfect as possible. The director had the toughest time since all he could do was stand around and wait until the day's flying was done, then collect all the day's filming out of the onboard camera systems and take it to watch for the first time then and make notes for the next day's flying.
    The actors actually had to go through an intensive training program to prepare them for flying in the fighters. I imagine there was some vomit hosed out of the cockpit after some of those maneuvers. Even though the actors, from what I remember, were never taken above 4G, that's nothing to sneeze at. Especially over time. I know the Fury 325 roller coaster at Carowinds near where I grew up in Charlotte, NC is said to max out at around 4Gs, that's just for a short period of time.
    The WWII plane Cruise was working on at the beginning and flying at the end of the movie is his own personal plane that he is licensed to fly. He took members of the cast and crew up in it for fun in between work. That had to be a blast.
    Val Kilmer, of course, had been fighting throat cancer in real life, but it was important to have him in this movie and he wanted to be there. His voice in the scenes was a programmed synthesized voice, but it was perfectly his voice as it might be. It was so good to see them as such close friends, and to know that Ice had constantly been Mav's guardian angel, keeping him in the service no matter what Mav did to get himself dismissed. And it showed a lot of how well Ice really understood Mav, and explains a lot of Mav's behaviors in the early movie.
    Mav is basically suicidally depressed when the movie starts, but he's not the suicidal type, so he looks for situations where he can go out doing what he does best, but he fights to survive anyway because that is his nature. Ignoring how he feels (typical man, I know) he focuses on something else that he can control: flying. All Mav has is the service. He has no family. Even Goose's family he's not close to, though we only learn why as the movie advances. The Navy and the people he works with, best shown in Hondo, are the only family he has. So he pushes beyond Mach 10 because the project is going to be shut down and he'll lose the team/family he's been working with and, knowing as he does that Ice has been fighting cancer, he is aware that his long-term guardian angel might not be able to keep him where he needs to be. His time is running out, and he's well aware of that, so if he stays in pure Maverick mode and pushes juuust a bit more, and a bit more again, then maybe he can go out doing what he loves before that is taken away from him too. So he does. But he survives. And his guardian angel is still able to shift him back to someplace he needs to be. And, whether this was Ice's grand plan knowing who all from Pete's history was there or not, Mav ends up where he needs to be to reestablish a will to live beyond the military. Reestablishment of his old family with Rooster. Rediscovery and, much more importantly, a new appreciation of an old flame (mentioned but never seen in the original movie). And suddenly Mav has every reason to not die in the cockpit. So, of course, he must go and do something that could very easily make him die in the cockpit.
    In a Hollyweird full of shallow and dull movies and shows with shallow, poorly done scripts and no actual thought behind them and shallow, unrealistic characters who only change in shallow ways if at all, a movie of this great depth made me so happy to see. I can watch it again and again and love it still. So very well done. For all the concerns I've had for Tom Cruise's weirdnesses in the past, he is absolutely a glorious hero for making this movie happen.

  • @granadosvm
    @granadosvm 7 місяців тому +4

    Mach is a measure of speed. It represents the speed or sound, so Mach 10 means he is flying 10 times the speed of sound.
    G is the force equivalent to gravity, not the speed Maverick was flying in the opening sequence. It's like that ride in the fair where they put you in a loop and you get stuck to the wall, the faster it turns, the heavier you feel tied to the wall of the ride. 10 G is equivalent to 10 times the gravitational force of Earth, so if you weight 70 kg, you will feel like you weight 700 kg. If the weigh of your arm to maintain it around the control lever is 6 kg, it would feel like it weights 60 kg, so it is a battle just to keep your hands on the controls.

Other 4 star admiral billets include the Atlantic fleet commander the CNO (Chief of Naval Operations and DCNO (Deputy chief of Naval operations).

      They made the CNAF position dual-hatted with Commander Naval Air Force Pacific. Which made me thought, why not make Commander PF dual-hatted with Commander INDOPAC, since the latter has always been held by a Navy Admiral and will probably be for the distant future as well.

    25:20 he never wanted Maverick to train the pilots. It was supposed to be a suicide mission but IceMan knew that Maverick could teach them to survive the mission so he used his weight to bring Maverick in. After Ice died Cyclone took control and was able to dump Maverick to run the mission his way. He ended up after Maverick showed it could be done Cyclone figured sending him on the mission would be a good way to get rid of him. The actors did go up in actual two seater jets to film them “flying”. 36:22 Rooster wasn’t out of ammo he was out of flares for a defensive measure.

      Cyclone was never trying to get rid of Maverick or lose any of the team, he could easily have had Maverick court marshalled (as he said), but instead knew the mission had more chance of success and survivability with Maverick leading than without him. He was definitely more concerned with the success of the mission and knew there was a cost, but that’s why he holds a 3-star Admiral rank, the mission comes first and that’s his priority. The reason he looked to change the mission was because they were failing to do it the way they were being taught by Maverick, and he had to make sure that they could at least complete the mission. Returning safely would then be down to the skill of the pilots. At the end of the day, mission success was always more important than all 4 F-18s and their crews, failure allows the enemy to make nuclear grade weapons which could cost millions of lives. It wasn’t a “suicide mission”, it was a high risk mission, but the risk was 4 planes (and 6 crew members) vs millions of lives around the world.

    There's a theory that everything after the Mach-10 ejection was a prolonged NDE. An actual American fighter pilot reviewed this movie (saying it looks good, but heres what would REALLY happen if that occured in reality), and said that ejecting at Mach-10 would shatter your spine, if not outright kill you. It goes through Mavericks life reconciling his missed opportunities/mishandled moments.
    His arriving at the bar wondering where he is, is him just starting the slow transition into the afterlife.
    His coming back to TG is his chance to come to peace with washing out (him having the right decisions and resolutions despite the militarys mindset) his meeting Penny is him dealing with his missed chance with Penny originally and realizing she is the love of his life(he cements this when he says he is never leaving her again).
    Phoenix's training accident is him putting what he learned from the accident that claimed Goose into action and learned that he wont be able to save the aircraft every time something goes wrong. Sometimes you can, but more often than not, you can't.
    The mission he will eventually lead is his final test of everything he has learned, and even facing death directly with the Su-57 getting a brief lock on him. His accepting it and knowing he did all he could allow the enemy to be "killed" and him to get his farewell party (the celebration on the carrier). And the ending is him waiting to see what's next, and Penny coming is to take him to the hereafter and then flying towards the sun is Mav finally moving on to the afterlife.
    But like i said, its just a theory 🤷‍♂️

    G force is the force of acceleration equivalent to the force of gravity. 1 G is normal Earth gravity force. When you accelerate in a vehicle, your body is being pushed into your seat by -G force which is the force of acceleration.
    Mach is multiples of the speed of sound. Mach 10 is 10 times the speed of sound.

A hellcat or corsair flown by the navy and marines would be a better choice. Navy did not buy 2 seat trainers though a few corsair trainers were made.

    Mach numbers are relative to the speed of sound, and the speed of sound changes with atmospheric pressure, so mach 10 isn't a specific speed, but it is 10 times the speed of sound at whatever altitude he happens to be at. At sea level the speed of sound is 760 mph (1223 km/h), and given that the plane he was flying is loosely modelled on the SR71 Blackbird, I'm going to assume it was flying at 80,000 feet or so. At that altitude the speed of sound is about 660 mph (1062 km/h), so mach 10 at that altitude would be 6600 mph (10620 km/h)
