Mistakes
In all sequences where Maverick "puts on the brakes", he is shown pushing the throttle quadrant forward and pulling the stick back. This would put him in a full-afterburner climb as the airbrake on the F-14 is actuated by a small slide button on the side of the quadrant itself. See more...
Trivia
After the (in)famous scene in which Maverick and Goose sing to Charlie, she leaves the bar (actually, the rear bar area of the Miramar Naval Air Station Officers' Club) and goes to a restroom some 20 miles away (a men's restroom in the lobby of an administration building at Naval Training Center, San Diego). Maverick follows her, and after their exchange they both head back up I-15 to re-enter the bar at Miramar. I assume that the rather cramped restrooms at the Miramar O-Club were inappropriate for the scene (no counters, either, when I was there). See more...
