Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1990 movie starring Tommy Lee Jones and Nicolas Cage as United States Army Air Cavalry helicopter pilots. The U.S. Army and the DEA are assisting government officials in Central America in fighting the increasingly militant drug cartels, but are unexpectedly outgunned by a mercenary pilot Eric Stoller, and his Scorpion attack helicopter. Captain Jake Preston (Cage), one of the few survivors of an aerial ambush in the beginning of the movie, must train hard to prepare for a new mission to hunt down and eliminate Eric Stoller. | |

Break the Haughty | |
Fire Birds / int_2af6bbeb | comment |
Note that this is actually a pretty modest boast for Preston, being how he acts after his Break the Haughty experience. Before that was the notorious I AM THE GREATEST! rant in the flight simulator. | |

Ace Pilot | |
Fire Birds / int_5deb34da | comment |
Ace Pilot: Several, although when the movie begins, Eric Stoller is the only one to get any air-to-air kills. Preston is a very skilled pilot, with even the hardened teacher CWO Little singing his praises. However, he lacks experience in the Apache helicopter, and his cocksure attitude does him no favors in overcoming his difficulties with the airframe or in trying to rekindle his relationship with Guthrie. | |

Artistic License – Military | |
Fire Birds / int_6eb4e408 | comment |
Artistic License – Military: Guthrie and Preston had a past romantic (or at least sexual) relationship and start a new one despite being part of the same training cadre and assigned to the same task force. Preston's conduct towards her alone would probably get him reassigned, especially considering the fight he starts over her early in the film. | |
