'Top Gun' studio borrowed fighter jets for $11K an hour but Tom Cruise was not allowed to touch controls

Hard pass. I think Americans should be focusing their attention on something besides the silver screen, even if Hollywood is now trying to appeal to patriots in order to keep them distracted, while the left makes a big putsch for gun control.

top gun movie is bullshit cuz I do flight sims.

that trailer when he punches the downward stick to yaw in a quick jerk.. AUTOMATIC BULLSHIT

flight sticks are hair trigger type controls- and no way in fucking hell someone jerks DOWN on a stick with that force is going to do nothing but either straight up( throttle dead drop down to a behind plane) its just fake hollywaood bullshit
