Top Gun Retired

f14_tomcat.jpgAn era in military -- and movie -- history came to a close in Tucson yesterday. [Arizona Daily Star]. The original F-14A Tomcat, the "sexy," two-seat Navy warplane that co-starred with Tom Cruise in the 1986 hit film "Top Gun," officially was retired when the last of them landed at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base on Monday. Oh well, even sexy planes can't last forever. And the movie itself's a little dated, but still hot.
