Final Countdown or Top Gun?

The movie "The Final Countdown" filmed on USS Nimitz was more than just that aviation fueled “Top Gun” movie that was filmed on USS Enterprise, because at that time we really gave the “Bear a Scare” in the Med. It was known that our ship’s engines could provide at least the 30 knots of wind over deck to launch and recover, and every BTU of catapult steam was brought to you by those people down in the ship’s Reactor and Engineering Departments.
