About the stickers
In the spring of 1985, a Kawasaki GPZ 900R motorcycle appeared on the movie set, which was to take part in the film. It was not appear alone but in the company of the second identical copy. The person who provided them to film producers was Chris Dolan, a Kawasaki dealer in San Diego. Both serial motorcycles have received special painting, and what is a lot of emotions in this motorcycle, and what is their important, and even the most important element, that is a set of stickers on the subject of aviation, closely related to the subject of the film and the place of his action.
And everything would be beautiful, if not for the fact that on both motorcycles the stickers were placed not in the same places! It would not be a problem if it were not for both of them in the film! In one scene Tom Cruise rides in the first copy, in another, second one! In the end I decided to choose one of them and put the stickers on the motorcycle in this way. The photos from the movie set found on the web proved to be a great help, where you can see exactly where the individual stickers were placed.

Short stickers description:
Cubic
Tactical Aircrew Combat Training System
Unitid States Navy Fighter Weapons School
This is the official name of the pilot school, colloquially referred to by the "Top Gun" pilots. The school was located in Miramar Fightertown near San Diego, California.
Fighting 114
Designation of Naval Squadron VF-114. This squadron in the 80s of the last century was stationed on the aircraft carrier CVN-65 USS Enterprise, as we saw in the film. It was equipped with F-14 Tomcat fighters. In 1985, the squadron held training sessions at Miramar.
VF-213
It's also the fake of the Navy's squadron. Its composition also included F-14 planes. His base was also an Enterprise aircraft carrier and while shooting photos for the film, he was stationed on this ship.
Fighting Fifty One
Designation of the FV-51 Squadron, which was a unit stationed at Miramar. The aircraft included in it also took part in many scenes in the film.
Tomcat
Is a nickname for the plane "F14". I guess the official name is "F14 Tomcat".
No. 55
The US government has introduced regulations regarding the speed limit has roads up to 55 m / h. The reason was the fuel crisis and the need to save fuel. Heavy-metal vocalist Sammy Hager has popularized this label with his hit song "I can not drive 55".
No Bullshit
This sticker speaks for itself
No Wimps
Wimp stands for a kitten, a chicory, an orphan, a victim, etc.
No Turkey
The only explanation of this sticker, which I found in the abyss of the Internet, says that in this case it means similarly to the above "Not for losers" meaning NO losers and losers.
