:17:01
You're the top one percent
of all naval aviators.
:17:07
The elite. The best of the best.
We'll make you better.
:17:14
You fly at least two combat missions
a day, attend classes and evaluations.
:17:20
On each combat sequence you're
gonna meet a different challenge.
:17:27
We'll teach you to fly the F-14
faster than you've ever flown before.
:17:35
Now, we don't make policy here.
Elected officials, civilians, do that.
:17:41
We are their instruments and must
always act as though we are at war.
:17:49
- What are you doing?
- Just wondering who's the best.
:17:54
In case some of you wonder
who the best is, they're on this plaque.
:18:00
The best driver and his RIO
from each class has his name on it.
:18:05
They have the option to come back here
and be Top Gun instructors.
:18:11
- You think you will be on the plaque?
- Yes, sir.
:18:16
That's pretty arrogant,
considering the company you're in.
:18:23
- Yes, sir.
- I like that in a pilot.
:18:29
Remember, when it's over out there,
we're all on the same team.
:18:36
This school is about combat.
There are no points for second place.
:18:43
- Dismissed.
- Nice going.
:18:48
The plaque for the alternates
is down in the ladies' room.
:18:55
Jesus ... You kill me.
:18:58
You really do ...
There's two O's in Goose, boys.
