I am wondering just how many zero's were involved in that video, and I do not mean the Japanese ones. That had to be hideously expensive and I am so damn jealous.

He is referring to UK standards. They don't eat much there with those bad teeth.

Thanks for the link.

I did not know that Cruise is a real pilot,and quite an accomplished one.

I have always liked his films and acting.

What a way to live the dream!

The fact that he put in the time and the discipline to put in the work it took to fly those platforms is impressive.  I still think he's psycho AF but you gotta respect his drive.

Is it wrong of me to have been wishing it would auger in and get rid of both of them?
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

Impressive that the Patriot Jet Team allowed him to fly one of their L-39s.  Wonder what the behind the scenes arrangement consisted of (💵💵💵💵💵).  Tom obviously is type rated in the L-39, and the Honda Jet.  Neither a small accomplishment, in addition to being qualified in the Mustang.

I think he owns the Honda jet. Didn't he used to own an L-39? I feel like I remember that in the 2000s.
