Tom Cruise made the school famous, but the real action at TOPGUN is with the pilots who actually graduated in real life. Retired F/A-18 pilot and TOPGUN instructor Guy Snodgrass gives us an inside look at what makes TOPGUN tick - from both the student and instructor perspective. In our conversation, Guy and I discuss:
+What it takes to get into and thrive at TOPGUN
+How aviation debriefs apply to the civilian world
+Artificial intelligence's future (?) role in fighter aviation
+How an engineer and fighter pilot becomes a writer for the Secretary of Defense
