->\\\'\\\'\\\'Cmdr. \\\"Stinger\\\" Jordan\\\'\\\'\\\': You guys were number two, Cougar was number one. Cougar lost it-turned in his wings. You guys are number one. But you remember one thing: if you screw up, just this much [only a half-centimeter between his fingers], you\\\'ll be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong!

As I said previously in the archived discussion, Maverick almost \'\'was\'\' ReassignedToAntarctica. He lost his qualifications for section leader three times and had been grounded twice by his CO. The \'\'\'only\'\'\' reason why Maverick was sent to Top Gun was because the CO\'s former pick had just quit, and Maverick was the ClosestThingWeGot:

[[quoteblock]]* In \'\'TopGun\'\', Maverick commits cashier-worthy violations \'\'over and over\'\' and ends up getting sent to the eponymous school for it. And not just things that are strictly military rules, but rules that are there for the safety of everyone, such as not buzzing the tower. These actions would get him grounded and [[ReassignedToAntarctica transferred somewhere that\'s not as nice as an elite school.]][[/quoteblock]]
