Dave Berke, a retired Top Gun instructor, rates the action scenes in "Top Gun" and "Top Gun: Maverick."

He talks about being an effective wingman, piloting an F-14, firing missiles, effectively navigating jet wash, getting out of a flat spin, and how ejector seats work in "Top Gun," starring Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, and Anthony Edwards.

Glen Powell confirms that 'Top Gun 3' is in the works after the last movie made almost $1.5 billion. Here's what we know so far.
