"You're a helluva instinct of pilot, maybe too good. I still can't believe it, I'm gonna give you your dream shot. You two characters are going to TOP GUN! For the next five weeks your gonna fly against the best pilots in the Navy. Cougar was no.1, you guys were no.2. Cougar couldn't hack it, turned in his wings."

"And Gentlemen, one more thing, Good Luck."

If you pop on to Youtube and search for "The making of Topgun" there's a 2 part documentary (about 2 hrs 30mins) that's a really interesting, behind the scenes look at the movie etc.
