Dogfights

I've complained about this show before.

They are getting much better.

The control surfaces are moving now! They even seem to be moving in a manner that would cause the maneuvering shown on the show.

Problem is, the aileron on an F-4 Phantom only moves down. On a Cessna, to roll one aileron goes up, the other goes down. On the Phantom, one goes down the other stays put and a spoiler on that wing deploys.

Guess what the ailerons are doing on the show.
