The actor? No. He's Canadian and pretty much trained to be an actor and a writer in his youth.

Of course he is Canadian!  :old:

Oh BTW
Iceman...Only cause he played Doc Holiday later on.......

Well Maverick and his I am ways caused cougar to meltdown and killed his navigator.... also he broke many a rule and claimed victory even though the rules were not followed so he loses.... Iceman was a dick so he loses. Meg Ryan is hot so she wins all


the rule about 10,000 feet being the hard deck?  The whole engagement was below that.

Obviously Iceman. In the real fight at the end of the movie he was engaging five cons and held his own. Even when one of his engines was shot out he still kept control of that Tomcat and survived allowing Maverick to come in and cherry pick the cons one by one. Also he didn't auger his ride even once.

And if any one party was culpable for the accident that killed Goose, it was Iceman: He refused to back off and allow Maverick to take the shot even though Maverick had the position and he didn't. AND it was his direction of break that caused Maverick to fly through his jet wash. Maverick was doing exactly what he was supposed to do in the moments leading up to the accident.

So did Iceman ever get called in for investigation after Goose's death, or did they just do Maverick in the whole court-martial scene?

long live goooose his career was stalled no pun intended by maverick
Goose would have survived had he of followed procedures, which I've heard that when in a flat spin, it is procedure to jettison the canopy before ejecting.

Goose wouldn't have hit the canopy had he of jettisoned it before ejection.

They only showed Maverick, probably just for time. I'd imagine a real investigation would have called on every member of the aircrew from every aircraft involved in the flight, the crew of the rescue chopper, and the guys observing from the tower.

Yet despite the accident Iceman graduated top of the class at NAS Miramar and was clearly Maverick's superior later as well.

If you ignore Maverick's Heroic BSOD affecting his rank.
