About "Top Gun: Maverick":

After being one of the United States Navy's top fighter pilots for over thirty years, Pete "Maverick" Mitchell continues to push his limits as a test pilot.

He refuses to rise in rank, because it would force him to give up flying.

He is tasked with training a detachment of young Top Gun school graduates for a special mission that no pilot would have ever imagined.

While on this mission, Maverick meets Lt. Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw, the son of his late friend, navigator Nick "Goose Bradshaw".

Faced with an uncertain future, haunted by his ghosts, Maverick will have to face his worst nightmares during a mission that will require the greatest of sacrifices.

An event to experience on Europe 1, the antennas of RFM and Virgin Radio and the social networks of the three stations.
