Tom Cruise is normally in the thick of the action on the silver screen, but he seems to never be far away from it in his real life either.
The Top Gun actor, 61, was spotted landing his helicopter in London this weekend as he made a trip to Battersea.
With a beaming smile on his face, the Mission: Impossible icon expertly landed his chopper and was captured laughing and joking with the crew beside him.
Wearing a black puffer coat and woolly scarf, the movie icon wrapped up for his trip to the chilly capital.
Interestingly, Tom also sported a nose clip, which is a device normally used to combat snoring.
Exiting his helicopter, the star was in high spirits, flashing a grin and waving to cameras on the tarmac before snapping a few pics himself on his mobile phone.
It’ll come as no surprise that Tom – who is forever performing daring stunts in his films – is a licensed pilot, hence his confidence behind the helicopter controls.
Not only that, but Tom has qualifications as a multi-engine instrument-rated pilot and pro helicopter flying skills, having previously revealed that his affinity for aviation was what initially attracted him to Top Gun.
He’s continued to work on bettering his skill set throughout his life, notably acquiring helicopter flying skills for the remarkable stunts in 2018’s Mission Impossible: Fallout.
Of course, Tom has his own collection of planes.
Previously, while filming a segment for The Late Late Show, Tom took James Corden for a ride in his own vintage P-51 Mustang fighter plane.
He acquired the World War II fighter – built in 1946 – in 2001.
That’s not all, as he also owns a Gulfstream IV G4 jet, which has an estimated price tag of $20million (£15.7m).
This one’s more luxurious, as it can accommodate for 19 passengers and even comes furnished with a jacuzzi and a movie-screening room (yes, really).
We wonder if the latter will be used for any romantic getaways in the future, given how Tom is said to be loved up.
Tom is reportedly currently romancing Russian socialite Elsina Khayrova, 36, with dating rumours first surfacing after eyewitnesses spotted them getting cosy on the dancefloor at a Mayfair party in December.
