Quotes7

  • Jester: That was some of the best flying I've seen yet. Right up to the part where you got killed. You never, never leave your wing man.
  • Jester: His fitness report says it all. Flies by the seat of his pants. Completely unpredictable.
  • Viper: He got you, didn't he?
  • Jester: [pauses] Yeah.
  • Viper: [discussing Maverick] Let me ask you something. If you had to go into battle, would you want him with you?
  • Jester: I don't know, I just don't know
  • [Jester and Viper watch a frustrated Maverick walk off after having a falling out with Sundown]
  • Jester: He can't get back in the saddle, won't engage.
  • Viper: It's only been a few days.
  • Jester: You know, he just might not make it back.
  • Viper: Keep sending him up.
  • Viper: Maverick, I flew with his old man. Tell me one thing, if you had to go into battle would you want him with you?
  • Jester: I don't know, I just don't know.
  • Jester: Maverick, you and Goose get your butts outta that flight gear and up to Viper's office now.
  • Slider: Remember, boys, no points for second place.
  • Goose: You're a lot brighter than you look.
  • Slider: Oh, you shut up.
  • Jester: That was some of the best flying I've seen yet, right up to the part where you got killed. You never, never leave your wingman.
