+ojcar Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Rubbish! Where is Battle of Britain or Hells angels? Quote
+Wrench Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) Agreed!! BoB and HA are classics! and adding Iron(y) Eagle??? hmm.. questionable Edited September 30, 2014 by Wrench Quote
+MigBuster Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Haven't seen that - think its Skyfighters? Yeah Top Gun dogfight probably the best Cant decide which one was the funniest out of Indiana Jones and James Bond Quote
Do335 Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 ehe watched and still remember everyone of them, only the red baron felt a bit distant Have you ever seen this? quality mirage porn yes, story or good dogfight...eeeeh... Quote
+dtmdragon Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) I also vaguely remember a movie about a Polish Spitfire squadron called ‘deep blue’ or ‘into the blue’ or something along those lines that had some good ait-to-air in it. If we are going to include space combat then the 2004 BattleStar Galactica series has to be up there to! lol Edited September 30, 2014 by dtmdragon Quote
Streakfalcon Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Final countdown? Return of the Jedi fleet clash? Midway? The great Santini? so many to chose..... Quote

+allenjb42 Posted September 30, 2014 Posted September 30, 2014 Where was BoB or the dogfights at the end of Aces High or Firefox? What about Blue Thunder vs Hughes 500MD, or F-14s vs Zeros in The Final Countdown? Quote
+daddyairplanes Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 only 7, 5,4, and 1 count. real aircraft. and agreed, need BoB, with maybe shots from Memphis Belle. again, real aircraft tho the Belle might not be counted due to it technically being German intercepts, not dogfighting. interesting fact about Memphis Belle.... the main cast was alomost lost during shooting when the B-17 they were getting a ride in crashed. luckily, nobody was hurt in the crash. but probably part of what made insurance rates for using live planes go up for movies.

+Fubar512 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Even "Flying Misfits" (the series pilot for "Baa Baa Black Sheep"), beats half the movies mentioned in that article. 3 Quote
+daddyairplanes Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 thanks Fubar. now another TV series i have to try and d/l.... Quote
Capitaine Vengeur Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 My favourite would be the hot pursuit in "Firefox", amazing for the year when the movie was made. For non-computer engineered pictures, I remember a fine dogfight, P-40s vs Zeroes, in "Tora Tora Tora". For tweaked pictures, several sequences of "Flyboys" I really enjoyed. Oh, er, and "Hot shots" too... About StarWars, my favourite would be rather the assault against the second Death Star (Return of the Jedi). Quote
+SayethWhaaaa Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 and adding Iron(y) Eagle??? hmm.. questionable I'd willingly sit through any Val Kilmer or George Clooney Batman than watch that one again! Firing 3 wingtip sidewinders? Gimme a break, Doug Masters! Quote
+SayethWhaaaa Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) While these are anime, these are two outstanding dogfight scene from the series Sentou Yousei Yukikaze:The opening scene of Ep01... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6OXeXSPMt8 Edited October 1, 2014 by SayWhatt 2 Quote
+SayethWhaaaa Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) And from episode 4, the attack on the JMSDF/UN carrier:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7amYM18JqPc(Fight begins at 3:12) Edited October 1, 2014 by SayWhatt Quote
B52STRATO Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 While these are anime Some are among the best cinematic achievements of aeronautics. I don't know how many times I could watch it, but the "flying Red Pig" remains to me an exceptional film. 2 Quote
+FLOGGER23 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Where are you leaving Flight of the Intruder??? Quote
+Wrench Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 no dogfights (we don't count the 2 Phantoms that kill the MiG that's after them) Quote
macelena Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 What about the Simpsons dogfights? Like the F-15 shooting first his wingman then himself with malfunctioning Sparrow, or the Tomcat overshooting the Wright flyer, then their pilots chasing it on foot? And then there is Milhouse 3 Quote
Lexx_Luthor Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 I'd guess the video is made to showcase recent hollywood cgi movies. Of what I've seen, Battle of Britain may be the best, as it did use the real airplanes, and it went deep with some air battle concepts like sun blindness, confusion, etc... For the futuristic stuff, with physics for small craft, the Babylon~5 series beats all. B5 is way too deep, and phony videos don't like it deep. lol However, from what little I watched of the new post~modern BattleStar Galactica series, this had the most realistic *visual* portrayal of small spacecraft combat, although still far from what would be reality -- you can't see what's going on cos everything is too fast or way waaaay too far away.

Emp_Palpatine Posted October 2, 2014 Posted October 2, 2014 I concurr, Porco Rosso is awesome. Battlestar Galactica has some good dogfights too. Quote
FalconC45 Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Few scenes of the Anime film called Sky Crawlers. The plot kinda don't make sense but it has pretty realistic dogfights. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIyeuK9QBJY 2 Quote
