Ever wonder how much of 'Top Gun' is real and how much is pure Hollywood? We get the scoop this week from retired Navy aviator Dave Baranek, who was a Top Gun instructor in Miramar when the iconic '80s movie was made. 

Read about Dave's Top Gun books on his official website. Also, win an autographed copy of his book if you play this week's seggies.

Stuck in the '80s is sponsored by The 80s Cruise. The 2021 voyage has been postponed to March 2022, but we'll still be there - along with all the original bands - for this amazing trip.
