There was naval aviation, keep in mind, long, long, long, before that
silly Top Gun movie.

Glad to see I'm not the only pilot who thinks Top Gun is silly.

It was aimed squarely at the angst-consumed teen market -- which it hit
squarely.

The movie has its flaws, but it still has the best (and most) modern
flying sequences I've ever seen in a movie.
