Top Gun - love the Tomcat so it's definitely in, despite the Gay undertones and the ability to pick holes in it all day long

Flight of the Intruder - all round quality film

BoB - another definite for the lines ('Silence in Polish' etc.) the flying but mainy for the sound of the Merlins

Wasn't there a Kevin Costner film where he got a flight in the back seat (RIO's seat) of a Tomcat as a farewell/retirement flight and was given a wild ride over/through the Grand Canyon? The rest of the film was a dull courtroom drama but the first 10 minutes or so are memorable.
