Weird that this thread gets posted. I just watched it last night for the first time.

I thought it was a good flick. A little too much of being over the top, more so than the first one IMO, but the plot was better than the first one too.

The very opening of the movie was actually my first part. Where he was wrenching on his P-51. In real life that's his plane. How cool would it be to not have a financial care in the world and get to wrench on that and fly that all day, everyday if you wanted to? I could live in that hanger and be perfectly content.

It was a good movie, as a sequel, it was a little better.
I feel the original was the better of the two. Because the original made the sequel better.

They did of really good job of continuing the story with the original characters.

The Navy returning a 60 yo pilot as an instructor at Miramar, is a bit of a stretch.


My cousin's son was one of those instructors. But he was more Nick Cage, not Tom Cruise. He flew Apaches.
Retired and flies Life Flight, now.
