Hollywood Burbank.??

Maybe Inyokern (KIYK)?? The scenery during the flights sure looked like the Mojave or China Lake.

BTW -- here's the very enjoyable video.

Great video

How funny. That's a Bose A20 that's been painted green. You'd think the ANR sensors would have problems being covered up like that.

Looks like they may have taped over it, unless they caked it on.

It only had to work for one flight.

Definitely Inyokern. Spent a lot of time there with my RV-8. TC’s Mustang was parked there multiple times over the course of the filming…

Were you involved in any of the flying scenes in the movie?

Nope! The used the FRS and TOPGUN staff for the flying scenes. Their China Lake work was 100% dedicated to dragging the Darkstar model around the base.
