In 1986 a classic came on to our screens “Top Gun”, this was all about macho pilots trying to be the best. This film is cheesy but have to admit I still watch it when it comes on the T.V. Macho pilots, dog fights, great sound track and Kelly Mc Gillis what more could anybody ask for? Maverick (Tom Cruise) and his companion Goose (Anthony Edwards) are sent to the Navy flying school where the top 1% are sent to see who is the best and becoming ‘Top Gun’.

Maverick who is fighting his own prejudices, but still wants to be the best but, with his cavalier way he is just dangerous. During a flying session his plain encounters technical difficulties and it goes into a spin, Maverick and Goose eject and unfortunately Goose dies.

With all that action going on in the skies, the producers still found time to add in a little bit of love, between Maverick and Charlie (Kelly Mc Gillis). All put together with a great soundtrack this film is now a classic. Top Gun t shirts are as popular today as they were in the 80s.
