The 1986 blockbuster is chock-full of famous quotes. One of those quotes comes at the end of the final flight scene when Maverick comes to Iceman’s rescue after Hollywood’s plane is shot down. (Sorry if all the call signs get confusing.)
Iceman looks at Maverick and says, “You can be my wingman anytime.”
