    The reason Maverick is only a Captain ( full Colonel equivalent) while his peers are 2 star Admirals is simple. Admirals don’t fly fighters, they fly desks. Maverick would never fly a desk, he would retire. At the age he is now, he’s definitely writing check his body can’t cash.

The chemistry on screen between Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Anthony Edwards, Rick Rossovich, Tom Skerritt, Michael Ironside, Tim Robbins, Clarence Gilyard and Meg Ryan made that movie!!! We've been waiting 36, not 32, but 36 long ass years for this! In no way was Top Gun a Right Wing Navy movie. Good grief.

    I find the issue of Mav being just a Captain to be a contrived issue as presented in the movie, but there is a deeper matter to consider. I left the Air Force after 5 years as a Captain. Yet Mav was a still a Captain after how many years? What gives? No need for concern. Note that a Captain in the Air Force, Army and Marines is an O-3 the same as a Lieutenant in the Navy (Mav's rank in the previous movie). A Captain in the Navy is an O-6 the same as a full bird Colonel in the Air Force. If you are an O-6 you are considered to be a very high rank with significant authority and importance. The O-6 rank is not easy to achieve and I came into contact some extremely impressive Colonels in the Air Force. To become a flag rank of a General or Admiral is very rare and often involves some politicking or political connections. Navy Captains and Air Force Colonels are very hands on. They command ships, bases, wings and brigades. They can be responsible for from 1,000 to over 5,500 personnel. So if you are curious a to why Mav is still just a Captain it is most likely he either didn't kiss enough backside, pissed someone off, or was more focused on actually accomplishing something. A perfect real world example is Colonel John Richard Boyd of the Air Force. His story can be found in the book "Boyd: The Fighter Pilot Who Changed the Art of War" by Robert Coram. It is a great read. Boyd used to remark that you can either become someone (high rank) or can do something (accomplish something important). But you can't do both. (For those who are interested there are a few U-Tube videos on Colonel Boyd.)

      @barrykidd1977 2 года назад

      Officers don’t get busted like enlisted. If they do something that serious, they are usually asked to resign their commission or are simply “dismissed” from the service, and that can only be done at a court martial. No NJP for officers, either. In the real Navy, Pete Mitchell wouldn’t have been on the first mission in the first film. He would have been dismissed or would have had to resign his commission after the first or second tower buzz. The Navy officer corps doesn’t play with non conformists.

After finding out what the inside of a courtroom looks like, he re-applied for the Naval Aviation program and went F/A-18s, and apparently attended Test Pilot School.

    Or...Maverick just pissed off many in the chain of command and they refuse him promotion during the selection boards. However, a Navy Captain (Colonel O6 in the Army or Marine Corps) can serve over 30 years until mandatory retirement but most retired at 30 years of service since retirement pay tops at 30 years and 3/4 of active duty pay (a nice piece of change). Anyway, very few officers get to be O-6's and from that pool even less get to be of flag rank (there is also a lot of political maneuvering involved). Retirement at the Navy Captain rank is to be admired since Maverick was at a rank that qualified him to command air groups, or an aircraft carrier but an officer may not want to be admiral because of the type of jobs he may prefer. Combat or test pilot beats being a desk jokey for most and being a staff officer at high levels is a most for further promotion but a fighter pilot of Maverick's psychological disposition would shun such duty which would further piss higher rank personnel.

    Regarding dustup about a Navy Captain version of Maverick in today's world/this movie. Every rule has its exceptions. Mandatory retirement dates...like the 30 years of service for 0-6s (Navy Captains or other Services' Colonels)...can be overridden by exceptions due to the unique qualifications of the individual. Essentially, if the person is still capable of doing the job, that few or no others can do, then the Service may grant a waver to the mandatory retirement rule. That being said...Top Gun was 1986, and Maverick was a Navy Lieutenant (other service's Captain), which means he would have been a butter bar (Navy Ensign, other Services' Second Lieutenant) around 1980-1982ish. This means Maverick's 30 of service would be 2010-2012 ish...not 2021 or 2022. This also applies to Iceman being a Flag officer. He's too old, too, if you follow the timeline established by the release date of the movies. But seriously, if you are watching the movie, and concerned about the real-world retirement system...you must really not like flying.

    • @creativebodyflying

      Nah, he was like 3-4 years old in 1986, and movie was filmed in 2018, so he can be around 37 yo. In the movie they don't specify the year, so it could happen a bit earlier. Also in movie they said Maverick pulled out Rooster's papers from academy, pushing him 4 years back, which makes him probably older, than others. Also Admiral says 30+ years of duty for Maverick. In the beginning of first Top Gun he was already a LT, 24 yo, meaning he was on duty for a while. So, maybe the time difference between two movie timelines is a bit smaller, than 30 years.

    Well I have been writing my own fanfiction for 22 years now and I already had written a fanfiction for Top Gun Maverick the minute I saw the movie on June 7th I called it Top Gun legacy or Top Gun legacies I have all the new characters and I also write my own fanfiction like I said so I just had the same main character I've had since then just travel to all sorts of different TV shows that I love so right now I brought over the top gun characters to my fan fiction as well.💖
    So far I have seen top gun Maverick four times June 7th June 10th June 14th June 21st and I don't care anybody says each time I see it I saw uncontrollably at certain scenes especially when I see Maverick and Rooster hugging.

      The P-51D Mustang is actually owned by him. I am 99.9% sure he had the fellows out at stallion 51 in Kissimmee, Florida. Track down and locate a very beautiful well kept up up P-51 Mustang. That's part of one of their services that they do. And also you can get certification for your ratings to fly the P51 Mustang Crazy Horse" with Mr.. Pete Lauterbach with his dual control TF-51D Mustang group. Along with the pilot maker before you get the chance to take the trolls of the Mustang. You would have to master the North American at-6 Texan/ SNJ / Harvard. I was blessed to have a AT-6 Harvard MK-II growing up in the early 1980s. But here's their website information to take a look at what packages they have to offer. That way one day you can fulfill your wildest dreams. And be able to take up awesome beautiful screaming supercharged V12 through the central Florida Skies.

    Top Gun (1986) was full of cinematic nonsense (artistic license): wrong use of the word 'bogey', inaccurate portrayal of the 'hostile' aircraft which were just F5s not Sukhoi, flying upside down over another jet (rubbish), etc. There's a video out there about all the other inaccuracies. It was really just an action flick but it ended up inspiring so many to the naval aviation services. Call-signs for naval aviators also differ from the air force. The re-shoot scenes (lift scene) sort of stood out as Kelly McGillis looked different.

On the other hand you say that they placed cameras in the F-18's, Cruise said that he didn't know any other way to make the movie without putting the actors in the F-18's, and that one of the selling points to convince Tom to do the film was that the actors would actually be in the F-18's.
