The backseat of those jets, the "rio" helps with Navigation, Communication, and has a Radar array that shows multiple targets, can fire off flares and chaff and other things that help confuse enemy missles. I don't think they can actually fire missles from back there but they can help with the defensive and tactical stuff and provide information, electronic warfare like jamming, take pictures etc. They allow the pilot to stay focussed on flying a very complex aircrafts and dogfighting and of course, command. It really is a two person job although modern jets can do much of this automatically now, and have much better interfaces than in the past and I believe the modern versions of this class are piloted by one pilot and a lot of screens, Heads Up Displays, Computers, and software interfaces. I'm kinda talking from a point of NOT being a pilot, so correct me if I am wrong guys, but this is the Jist of it. Databyter

The rio could fire radar guided missiles, and did in combat on at least one occasion.

@@SuperMozzman Right, which isnt dog fighting, it is fired at like 15 miles out or something. it is a very technical thing leaving the pilot free to keep his eyes on the sky and his instruments.

[@CDRhammond]

They aid in locking a target in as well as arming the missile to be fired by the pilot up front. But you are correct only the front seat in aircraft like the 14 or like in the aircraft I flew featured in the second movie the 18F (called a WSO in that aircraft) can fire off a missile or fire rounds out of the cannon. Having a back seater also adds a second pair of eyes looking out for threats which in some cases can mean the difference between life and death.

Hi Bisscute! You asked about what is a 'hard deck' - It is the lowest altitude allowed to be flown during a training exercise. It is usually about 1000 meters above the highest land mass in the area like a mountain. That way, if there is a mechanical problem or other problem, the pilot has a chance to adapt without crashing right away.

[@fizban5959]

In addition it simulates the surface of the earth in a training excercise. So if Maverick flew below the hard deck, it means in that training he crushed his plane in the ground and is dead for this excercise.

[@BigGator5]

"You! You are still dangerous. But you can be my wingman any time." "Bullshit! You can be mine." Fun Fact: The real Top Gun School imposes a $5 fine to any staff member that quotes the film. Let's Go Fact: Riding on the back of this film's success, the U.S. Navy set up recruiting booths in the major cinemas to try and catch some of the adrenaline charged guys leaving the screenings. They had the highest applications rate for years as a result. Real Viper Fact: Charlie's "older man" date at the officer's club is Rear Admiral Pete "Viper" Pettigrew. He is a retired Navy pilot and Top Gun instructor, and shot down a MIG during the Vietnam War. He served as the technical consultant on the film.

[@dougcollins9980]

Great reaction - the english term is "Jet Wash" which caused the engines to flame out. The early revisions of the F14 Tomcat had a problem with unstable airflow causing the engines to flame out. Goose ejected when they were in a flat spin - so no forward speed - so the jettisoned canopy was not swept away by the airflow - he ejected and hit the underside of the canopy and broke his neck. This did happen in real life on at least one occasion.

[@neil2444]

Iceman wasn't a bad pilot, or even a jerk. He was kind of shown as the antagonist, but he was right. Maverick was dangerous. Iceman had good reason not to like him. Towards the end, Maverick just learned to depend on others, and while chaotic, wasn't dangerous to others he was flying with.

[@sledgehammerk35]

I still firmly believe Ice was the better pilot. He reminds me a lot of Dale Snodgrass.

[@chrismaverick9828]

Goose's description of Iceman in the beginning was spot on for what a skilled pilot needs to be. Patient, observant, and ready to strike when the right opportunity shows itself. The fact that he held off five MiGs for almost ten minutes, entirely defensive, while Maverick launched and rushed his way there to save the day says more than enough about his skills.

[@paulstelian97]

The funny part is Ice’s role in the sequel

[@boppityboopy114]

I wouldn’t discredit ice at the end. He survived a 5 v 1 for a pretty long time that’s very impressive 😂

[@martinklaus2203]

Goose was the RIO....radar intercept officer. A RIO's job is to scan with radar and lock up enemy aircraft so the pilot can maneuver into firing position and fire a missile.

[@jsmith3039]

I'd just like to add that the F-14 had a very complex radar/missle system that could track 24 targets, lock on 6 and fire 6 missiles in succession. So an RIO was needed so the pilot could concentrate on flying and the RIO was a second set of eyes which is always a plus in a dogfight.

[@rogeliolarronda]

- A bogey is an enemy - While Maverick is the jet’s pilot, Goose is his RIO, Radar Intercept Officer - If they fire before being fired upon, they could start an international conflict - What happened to Cougar was that he thought he was about to be killed by the enemy aircraft - Goose died because the canopy opened incorrectly after ejecting, and he hit his head against it - Your English is great and your Romanian accent is adorable. I noticed you understand some Spanish. How did you learn it?

[@raybernal6829]

What actually happened to the canopy was that since they were in a flat spin it went straight up instead of getting caught in wind and flying backwards. A flaw in the design of how the canopy was supposed to come off.

[@williamjones6031]

1. An old shipmate of mine was onboard the Enterprise when they filmed this. 2. Gooses death was not Maverick's fault. Iceman was bogarting his LOS approach and they got caught in the jet wash. 3. I spent 24 years in the US Navy. 6 on "bird farms" (Carriers). I have seen 1000+ launches and landings without a single crash. These men and the men working the flat tops are doing the most dangerous job in the world (for the good guys). Shout out😎 4. Kelly McGillis/Charlie was in a movie with Harrison Ford "Witness" that's seriously worth a first time/share HINT HINT 5. Tom Skerritt/Viper not only played Dallas in "Alien" he also played Strawberry in "Up in Smoke" with Cheech and Chong. 6. Val Kilmer/Iceman has a long list of movies including but not limited to: "Willow", "The Doors" and "Tombstone" 7. The officer(Goose) is the RIO (Radar Intercept Officer) radar, communications and navigation. 8. Onboard the ship the Squadron leader would not be smoking a cigar in that operation space. 9. Meg Ryan is my honey. A great overlooked movie with her is with Tom Hanks called "Joe vs the Volcano" She plays 3 parts. HINT HINT 10. Onboard the ship/aircraft all the perspiration is Hollywood (not the pilot). There is AC onboard. 11. The TOP GUN school is no longer located at Miramar near San Diego. It's now at NAS Fallon, NV. 12. In 1991 I was stationed on the USS INDEPENDENCE (CV-62) and they made a movie onboard called "Flight of the Intruder". It was seriously cool. Brad Johnson, Willem DeFoe and Danny Glover. I'm actually in it for a very brief period of time. HINT HINT. 13. Watching/sharing the new "Top Gun Maverick" is a must. The ariel work in that movie makes this one seems like they were practicing. Better yet, it has a plot. (Besides Navy recruitment).

This movie was a huge box office success in 1986. It was singlehandedly responsible for increasing recruitment for the U.S. Navy. The movie itself had a successful soundtrack with several hit songs. The plot line appealed to women with the romance part of it and the guys of course loved the F-14 Tomcat. Sadly, the F-14 Tomcat has been removed from service in the U.S. Navy for a while now. Iran is the only other country to have ever purchased the F-14 and they continue to fly them today.

One of the best sequel films ever made. Fun fact: The Navy allowed the production company to fire 2 live missiles. The film showed way more than 2 missiles firing scenes (rest are effects) and they looked so realistic that the Navy launched an investigation into the production of the film to find out whether more than 2 missiles were fired.

The "old man" Charlie is meeting at the officers club is Rear Admiral Pete (Viper) Pettigrew. The real Viper and technical advisor for the movie.

[@Valecan]

I remember watching this movie when I was younger and despising Iceman for his attitude. But after some time and reflection, if you watch the movie again knowing how Maverick's character journey evolves, you realize that every piece of unsolicited advice that Iceman gives to Maverick is good advice to make him a better pilot. It just comes across smug because him and Maverick have the same character trait of being completely arrogant.

[@denveradams4909]

My MOS in the United States Marine Corps, was Expeditionary Airfield Equipment Technician. Basically, we stopped tailhook aircraft, using the M-21 portable arresting gear and the E-28 emergency arresting gear. So......the flight deck of an aircraft carrier is very similar to what I did for the 6 years that I served. Since the F-14 Tomcat was strictly Navy, I never had the chance to "trap" one of them. But I did "trap" the F-4 Phantom, A-4 Skyhawk, A-6 Intruder, A-7 Corsair, F/A-18 Hornet and the E-2 Hawkeye, as well as the F-5 trainer aircraft. We also installed portable airfields, including the Fresnel Lens Optical Landing System. I'll never forget my years in the Marines, 1977-1983. Semper Fi

Really quick - The "10,000 ft Hard Deck" means the "Virtual Ground is at 10,000". So, at 18:32, Maverick said he flew into the ground, but it was only for a few seconds. *My father was stationed on the USS Ranger (CV-61) when they filmed the scene, in the Admiral's Quarters, where Cougar turned in his wings and the Captain told Mav & Goose they were going to Top Gun. My father was the only one with the key to that room, that day, so they wouldn't have been able to film that scene without him. He retired, CWO4, off the Ranger in 1987* 😁 *Oh yea! They offered him to be an extra, but he declined. My sisters and I still haven't forgiven him. lol When we all went to the Seattle premier, he was pointing out all his friends. Actually, we forgave him a little, when we got to wear his "Top Gun" jacket, the pilots gave to him, for his retirement, to school.*

Nice reaction as always, ☺🤗. Now part of the lingo for this movie and the next. ROE (Rules Of Engagement), like "do not fire until fired upon" bogey - unidentified aircraft (a bogey can turn into a bandit) Bandit - identified enemy aircraft. Tally-ho "enemy in sight" Hard Deck - The "Hard Deck" simulates the ground level, so if anyone goes bellow the hard deck means he just crashed (burn/died). mach speed - is the speed of sound, roughly 340 m/s, so mach 2 is twice of the speed of sound. Comercial air liners (Airbus 320, Boeing 747, etc.) all flying around mach 0.85 and the fastest airplane "Blackbird" SR71 did mach 3.3 (3,540 km/h). G force - The force of the gravity, so if you weight 60 kilograms and engage a maneuver of 5G, then you effective weight is 300 kg.

[@michaeleberly7351]

Yes, it is possible for the targeted jet to notice the change in the pattern of radiation coming from the prosecuting aircraft's radar which indicates that it is going into track mode as opposed to detect mode. When the this is detected the pilot may get a signal saying that a tracking lock has been established, and it is only going to be moments before a missile is going to be launched.

Yeah, if you totally ignore that Top Gun: Maverick is a straight up rip off of Star Wars: A New Hope with the whole Death Star trench run sequence. They even ripped off the scene where the automatic targeting system doesn't work (just like Luke turning off his targeting system and uses the Force) and send missiles down the shaft and blow up the facility. The only thing missing was a Darth Vader-type enemy ace pilot to shoot down the Navy jets, but they did include their version of a Han Solo-style last minute rescue by the arrogant Navy pilot who swoops in saves the day.

RIO = Radar Intercept Officer, which is tasked with finding enemies on the radar scope, as well as communication and some other duties. In modern jets like two-seater F-18’s the RIO is now called a WSO which is Weapon Systems Officer and it’s pronounced “wizzo” as a quick / nickname.

Goose is the "RIO" "Radio Intercept Officer". The RIO's job is to watch for missiles, and deploy countermeasures, so the pilot can concentrate on the mission objectives.

[@Databyter]

Jet Wash is a condition where the airis disturbed by another Jet. The problem isn't just like turbulence which could be easily recovered from. In their case, it caused them to lose an engine. Jet engines are very powerful and very reliable, but one thing they do require is a steady flow of compressed air. If a flight condition or a Jet wash condition disturbs the dense supply of air in front of a Jet engine it can flame out and it may be impossible to restart in a situation like that. To make it worse haveing ONE engine out, puts the Jet into a spin, and this can cause the OTHER engine to go out. If you lose both engines in a jet, and have no air flow over the wings, you can't glide, you can't power. You are just a rock falling down thry the air. He couldnt throttle out of it because the Jet wash caused him to lose one, then both engines. Because it caused him to spin, he had no air flow over his control surfaces so he could not dive for speed, or glide for a landing or engine restart. There is only a limited amount of things you can do in a flat spin, and depending on how much time (height) you have and how much air flow you have to play with to counteract the spin and THEN get flight control back, you may have almost no chance to recover. If he had been higher, had more time, and was able to slow down the spin and dive for airspeed, he could have glided the plane, maybe restarted the engines if it is possible on that model of Jet. But in this scenario, it was a really bad spin, and they were rapidly approaching the ground, so there was nothing to do but punch out. Normally the canapy will get out of the way, and the pilot and reo are shot out (with real explosives) after the canopyy clears. But because they were in a flat spin there was not enough airflow to pull the canopy away, and when the ejection seat fired, it fired him INTO the canopy, which at those speeds would have given him a serious head injury and likely a broken neck. He most likely would have died instantly with no pain. Databyter

[@michaelwatson266]

Goose is the RIO. Stands for Radio Intercept Officer. He looks after the radar and can select weapons based on what he sees on the radar. The F-14 was the only plane that carried the AIM-54 missle that had a range of 100 miles (160km). Way farther than the AMRAAM which has a range of around 25 miles. Sadly, the F-14 was retired in 2001.

In an F-14 the rear seater is the Radar Intercept Officer (RIO). This guy runs tbe radios and sensors in the plane and the pilot does the shooting. F-14's had a known sensitivity to airflow disruption on the engine intakes and the twin rudder relied a lot on engine power. If both flamed out the empennage tended to lock up, hence the unrecoverable flat spin.

Cougar was the best pilot in the wing. But you never truly know how you'll react in a situation until you're IN that situation. Things are different when there's a guy about to actually kill you. The front seat in an F-14 is the pilot. Back seat is the RIO - Radar Intercept Officer. During training, the "hard deck" is a safety precaution to make sure you don't crash. During combat, a hard deck can be set for lots of reasons. Pretty much all of them result in you getting shot down. Publications state Tom is around 5' 7" but his actual height isn't really known. Your kissy faces made me laugh every time! The early F-14s really did have the problem with flat spin shown in this. At least one RIO hit the canopy during ejection. The F-14 was in US service from 1974 - 2006. The Iranian air force still flies the few they have left.

Hi Bisscute!🙂The hard deck is just a set altitude for an op. For instance if the hard deck is 10,000 feet, you can't go below 10,000 to get a tone lock on your adversary. But, your adversary can go below 10,000 so you can't attack him. It is kind of like running away. Goose hit his head on the canopy that popped off before he puched out of the jet. Normally the canopy would be clear of the area by the time the pilot ejects. "Top Gun: Maverick" is considered to be the superior film by most people that have seen it. The scenes with the jets are real fighter pilots with a very clever camera system. Great reactions to this film which is a little dated, Bisscute!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

The "hard deck" is the lowest elevation they can fly during their training exercises. It is supposed to represent the ground. So when Maverick says, "We were only below the hard deck for a few seconds" it makes no sense, because if you crash into the ground you would be dead.

[@TetsuoVI]

OMG your reaction is hilarious 😄 I think your critique is valid. I feel the next one actually has a better and more cohesive story with proper structure. Please, please, please review Top Gun Maverick!

[@carlitozway9135]

Maverick is the Pilot flying, Goose is the RIO (Radio Intercept Officer). This means the job is split between 2. Maverick does the flying, goose does everything else like communications, radar ets. Hard deck is the simulated ground. If you go below 10 000FT you have hit the ground, and you are right, in war it does not matter. Training rules are set like this for safety

Tom has been working on his teeth for decades. I think they look pretty good compared to when he was in the movie “The Outsiders”(1983), which I recommend has cast full of young actors. Some which turned out to be huge stars. “Top Gun” had to be experienced in a movie theater with their huge surround sound for all those flight scenes and the music. Tom was a hottie back then and Val Kilmer too. They both dated Cher ❤the guys got lucky with that I think😂

[@josephalbanese]

great reaction. You are so natural and good at this. Oh, and I love how you get a little uncomfortable during the sex scenes. It's adorable. Oh btw, Tom Cruise had his teeth fixed in the 2000's.

"hard Deck" is a simulation of the earth. If you go below the hard deck it means you drove your plane into the ground. The English term for the air coming out of the back of the Engine is "Jet Wash". The Co-Pilot is the "RIO". The Radio/Radar Information Officer.

[@chrismaverick9828]

"These jets look kind of cool, right?" The F-14 is quite possibly the most attractive fighter jet ever developed. It has the sleek lines to show it is fast and powerful, but enough hard edges to show it is a workhorse and designed to fight. Various videos exist taken from chase plane of a -14 with wings swept full back and breaking off left or right. To those who love planes, the smoothness of the motion is a thing of beauty.

[@keithcharboneau3331]

The "HARD DECK" is a term we used in the Navy, WHILE TRAINING, especially in ACM (Air Combat Maneuvering) in Top Gun, during the 1980's and 1990's, they had a 10,000 feet "HARD DECK" this is a safety margin, no dogfighting is supposed to take place below 10,000 feet above the ground, this gives a 10,000 foot margin of safety when you are training for combat. that is what the "HARD DECK" is.

The "jet wash" (exhaust) of the first plane disrupted the air intake of Maverick's plane, causing the engines to shut down due to a lack of air to achieve the proper mixture. Think of it as the exhaust from one plane was too much "dirty/fumes" for the other plane to filter out, and that caused the engines to shut down in order to avoid getting too hot or WORSE becoming too volatile with it's own jet fuel (basically becoming two potential BOMBS instead of engines). The "flame out" is a safety feature built into the engine when the air flow or mixture (air/fuel) is disrupted that is basically an "emergency shut down". While it IS possible to "restart" the engines, it takes time. Time that is measured in SECONDS as well as requires the plane to be in a "straight line" in order to get "clean air" into the intakes. BUT, due to the engines cutting out one at a time, it caused the thrust of the plane to basically "push" it into a flat spin, preventing the air flow that the plane needed to start the engines back up. Because of the flat spin, the engines were basically just "dead weight" providing NO thrust to counter the spin, let alone provide the power needed to operate the electronics for the flight controls, OR power the hydrolic controls... making the whole plane nothing but death-trap. Which is why they ejected to escape the plane. Sadly, the motion of the flat-spin caused the canopy to be ejected UPWARD instead of BACKWARD (due to wind moving over the canopy), resulting in Goose's ejection seat to slam his head into the canopy. The "accident" as it happened on screen was a REAL event that happened to another pilot years prior to filming the movie. Thankfully, he was lucky to avoid hitting the canopy, but it was something that the Navy spent several MILLIONS to fix and address with future aircraft, especially the F-15 variations that came out AFTER this movie was released. (It was more a matter of research and experiments, as well as funding, that dictated the timing of the new variations, NOT the release of the movie)

The pilot was the Maverick, and the Cougar was the operator of the fighter's radar and weapons system. With today's fighters, the weapon and radar system is more automated and in just a few fighters there is still a second man to operate electronic warfare systems and also for advanced training, but in older fighters the second man in the cockpit was common

[@Rodrigolecosantos]

This Penny Benjamin who is mentioned by Goose's girlfriend in the bar scene appears in 'Top Gun: Maverick' from 2022. She is Jennifer Connelly's character in the second film. And you're right. The US Navy directly supported the production of this film, including allowing it to be filmed aboard the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson. After this film, the number of recruitment by the aviation of the US Navy went up a lot.

[@waxer420]

"Legend" starring Tom Cruise, it's about unicorns and the devil !

[@shainewhite2781]

LOVE THIS MOVIE! I saw this on VHS when I was 5 years old!

[@mattpotter8725]

Great reaction, great movie. I don't particularly like Tom Cruise either but some of his movies are iconic, so have to respect him as an actor at least. Your English is very good, but you did make me laugh when you used the word unalive (which isn't a word, but you make so few mistakes and even if you do it's really easy to understand what you mean). It also made me laugh when at the start you said you didn't really like fighter aircraft but by halfway through, maybe earlier you were like "I love these planes"!!! I think the cinematography, the script, and the acting make this a great movie with Tom Cruise, Anthony Edwards (Goose, not fair I think for his role in the US tv show ER), Meg Ryan (When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, You've Got Mail), Kelly McGellis (Charlie), Tom Skerrit (Viper), Val Kilmer (Iceman, who has played Batman, Willow), all well known actors, and Tony Scott was Ridley Scott's brother (director of Gladiator, Alien, Blade Runner) who directed this movie I think all made it so great. I've not seen the newer sequel yet, I just don't like visiting classics, and despite all the things wrong with this it is iconic. The last thing I'll say is that this was set in the time of the Cold War where the Soviet Union were a real threat so you can imagine for fighter pilots going up in combat situations it really would be tense and they really were putting their lives on the line every time they flew. Once thing I found very odd though is that after the final battle, one engagement he is allowed to become an instructor. Surely this would never have happened as the best young pilots are needed on what you'd say is the front line, and he is hardly qualified to be an instructor, but I know this is just a story so can let this slide.

[@blitzmetal444]

Excellent reaction #BissFlix ,now you can see: TOP GUN Maverick from 2022... the final part of the story.... Greetings!!

[@big_davec76]

Absolutely love this film, reaction and reactor. I like the nod to original military aviation speak. Pilots called Tally Ho when engaging an enemy and no joy when unable to shoot it down.

[@victorramsey5575]

You're just now watching this classic 80s movie??!! Dang girl, you slackin'. Im just messing with ya :) Im an old man so its always amazing to see the young generation watch this. BTW the Top Gun Anthem (not Danger Zone, not Take My Breath Away, but the other song you hear throughout the film) is none other than the late Eddie Van Halen. Did you notice the boss man on the ship was also the school principal in Back To The Future? Since you're a flight attendant, you should react to a movie called United 93. On September 11 2001, there were 4 planes hijacked by terrorists. 3 planes hit their targets, the 4th plane did not. The crew and passengers fought back against the terrorists. United 93 is a true story of good winning over evil. And just for the record, your English is very good. Better than mine sometimes. But I was born in The South, we aint known for our fancy words and book learnin'. 🤪

[@devinmcmahan9865]

The guitarist was Steve Stevens (who played for Billy Idol) at least for the movie, I dunno if Eddie ever played the anthem... yeah, it would have been funny if they had the commanding officer call him a slacker for fun

[@vincentvancraig]

My last name is “Mitchell” & this came out when i was 10yo....for two years, i was Maverick...i was him, in my head, i was him...im also a pretentious gemini b@stard, & im insane, so, i literally thought i was Maverick as a child...i was gonna join the U.S. Navy & everything...get me a hot, blonde girlfriend. Anyway, this is just classic 1980’s cinema...& the ariel photography/cinematography was absolutely groundbreaking.

[@jonnybb]

8:34 - That would be the 'power thingy' ! :D

[@musicstar693]

B4 filming top gun the cast had a literal flying program because of the real life human pilots. I love the way blissflix laughs

[@BlackieNuff]

If you're on a Tom Cruise... uhm, cruise (lol), you may want to check out the film A Few Good Men. It's about a military tribunal looking into the death of a young military officer. An intriguing little whodunnit mystery. It is the film that launched the famous pop culture quote : _"You want answer?"_ _"I want the TRUTH!"_ _"YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!"_
