List of voters for the quote

Vice Admiral Beau 'Cyclone' Simpson: I'm Vice Admiral Simpson, the Air Boss. I believe you know Rear Admiral Bates. Maverick: Warlock, sir. Vice Admiral Beau 'Cyclone' Simpson: Captain Pete "Maverick" Mitchell. Your reputation precedes you. Maverick: Thank you, sir. VADM Beau 'Cyclone' Simpson: It wasn't a compliment. Maverick: I have to admit I wasn't expecting an invitation back. RADM Solomon 'Warlock' Bates: They're called *orders*, Maverick. You two have something in common. Cyclone was first in his class back in '88. Meverick: Actually, sir, I finished second. Just wanted to manage expectations. [...] VADM Simpson: You were a Top Gun instructor before. Maverick: That was over thirty years ago, sir; I lasted two months. VADM Simpson: Well, let me be perfectly blunt: you were not my first choice. You weren't even on a list. You are here at the request of one man: Admiral Kazansky. Now, Iceman happens to be a man I deeply admire. And he feels you still have something left to offer the Navy. What that is I can't imagine. But let me be clear: this will be your last post, Captain. Either you fly for Top Gun, or you don't fly for the Navy ever again.
