Default Top Gun CUNNINGHAM: I broke the law, concealed my conduct and disgraced my office.

Dirty Harry put it this way, "A man's got to know his limitations." I was
always amazed by the capacity for self-delusion suffered by some aviators:
"Great" gun passes with the pipper off target. "Rails" approaches that
weren't. etc.

"ain't it the truth"

You know, and I'm sure you will know exactly what I'm talking about there;
when its all been said and done for Cunningham, what's really going to hurt
him the most is what has happened to his reputation inside the community he
knew and loved the best. That alone, is a penalty above all the others, and
one that will follow him the rest of his days.
What a shame.......and what a waste!
