Welcome to the Breitling family, and welcome to BreitlingSource. Hope the wait for the SOH isn't too long - it's a great piece.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT??????????? You don't like Top Gun?!?!? It should be a crime, saying that! :wink:

Sure it's cheesy and there have been rumours of certain err..... "undertones" in the film (thanks for putting that in my head Tarantino!), but it's a total 80's classic!

(My post was a quote from it too BTW, Boney. :roll: )

I inferred that, thanks. Yeah, "undertones", um.. A bunch of dudes jumping around in either ill-fitting flight suits slapping butts and prancing about or playing volleyball shirtless. That does not sound "under" anything. Especially with Tom Cruises' long suspected taste for hoagie. Sorry gents, that movie gave one of the most noble and daring group of pilots a real pink hue!
Let the battle begin over this post! :uplaugh:
