In his words, “Farewell Chuck Coleman. Not only was he our aerobatics instructor for Top Gun: Maverick, but he played an essential role in our film’s preparation. He was an accomplished aerospace engineer, air show and test pilot, and we were fortunate to call him both a friend and partner.
Farewell to Chuck Coleman. Not only was he our aerobatics flight instructor, but also played a pivotal role in readying us for Top Gun: Maverick. An aerospace engineer, air show performer, and test pilot, Chuck was more than just a mentor – he was a friend and companion to us all. Known for his laid-back demeanor, we always felt at ease around him.
