don not bother to check for logic . there be none . but on the other hand and there be many really great movie that totally lack logic and so why bother . i both like and dislike this film . i like it because the action sequence in the air be really great and you get to see a lot of dogfight . i also like the f 16 and which be a very cool plane . but there be just too many goof to make me really enjoy it . i guess it not fair to wish for some sort of continuity and a it be hard to make a really good fighter film but i also think there should be some sense of reason . and i have a question represent do they fly from california to the middle east in f 16 without air refuel . i would like to see that happen .
