Topic Reading-Vol.1498-5/18/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Happy 30th anniversary 'Top Gun'!
Top Gun. Not a gun fight but a dog fight, of course. It is one of the iconic movies in the 80’s starred by then young and fresh Tom Cruise. The world then was still during the Cold War, so it wasn’t Russia but U.S.S.R. that the US F-14A Tomcat fighter jets had dog fights with. The engagement in the air was so intense that the audience forgot everything during the dog fight. Also, young Cruise played the main character, whose call sign is Maverick, so cool with the lines and music, not only when he was on the fighter jet in the air but also on the monster bike on the ground. Both seemed to satisfy his need for speed.
If you feel the need, the need for something, this is the movie you should watch for the weekend.
Enjoy recalling, or watching if you haven’t, this 30-year old iconic movie
