The Blue Angels Foundation (BAF) is the charitable arm of the Blue Angels Association (BAA). Its mission is to support wounded veterans who proudly volunteered to serve our nation and preserve our freedom. The BAF helps wounded warriors transition back to a civilian life with dignity and purpose by assisting them in with housing, counseling, PTS resolution, life skills, transportation and employment opportunities.

Tom Cruise is widely known for executing his own movie stunts. But, for the long-awaited Top Gun sequel, he had to rely on the help of the U.S. Navy to achieve the most authentic aerial movie scenes ever filmed. Cmdr. Frank “Walleye” Weisser, USN (Ret.) is a former Blue Angel solo pilot who flew several of the most intense aerial sequences featured in the film. In this interview, Walleye publicly reveals for the first time how he was selected to assist in the production of “Top Gun: Maverick” and what it was like to work as a stunt pilot for Tom Cruise. Spoiler alert! The F/A-18E used in production as Maverick’s jet (BuNo 165536) has since been converted and is now being flown by the current team!
