The USS Midway Museum is bringing that “loving feeling” back with the ultimate movie event of the year! On Friday, May 29 watch Tom Cruise as fighter pilot “Maverick”, and his co-pilot, Anthony Edwards as “Goose,” “turn ‘em and burn ‘em” in the most famous 80’s fighter pilot movie of all time: TOPGUN!
