Top Gun

Top Gun follows the pathway of a feisty troublemaker named Maverick Mitchell as trains with the United States Naval Aviator service. A push-pull drama, viewers root for Maverick and Goose from the very beginning of the film.

While the storyline and photography are largely believable, one scene defied reality. Maverick and Iceman fly one plane positioned directly on top of the other – in real life, the back wings of the planes would have collided causing a fatal crash.
