Tom Cruise Top Gun star shocked attendees when he showed up at the Royal International Air Tattoo in Gloucestershire.

The event, which was postponed in 2020 and 2021, was a blast for the Hollywood actor who has been visiting the UK for some time.

Every year on the third weekend in July, usually at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, the largest military air show in the world is staged to raise money for The Royal Air Force Charitable Trust.

The Royal Air Force’s aerobatics team, the Red Arrows, posted a fantastic photo of the squad standing with Tom, aka Mr. Maverick, on their Twitter page.

“We’ve got a new wingman…. Today, Maverick joined the Red Arrows! Epic to meet @TomCruise at the Royal International Air Tattoo and to speak about aviation, teamwork and Top Gun,” they captioned the post.

Tom lined up with the other Red Arrows while donning a navy blue suit for the occasion.

Mandy Hickson, a former Tornado GR4 pilot, said on Twitter that Tom went out of his way to find her so she could sign a copy of her latest book for him.

The news comes as box office receipts for Tom Hanks’ newest Top Gun movie surpassed $1 billion earlier this week.
