Description

The second season of this wildly popular series features first-hand accounts of the flying aces themselves, combined with rare archival footage and state-of-the-art CGI graphics. Each air battle is recreated in stunning detail, putting viewers in the cockpit, facing the enemy. From Fokker triplanes and SE5s dueling over Belgium and F86s and MiG-15s battling in the skies above North Korea to World War II s P-51 Mustang and the American F-15s that fought in Operation Desert Storm.

9.2 DVD Verdict | David Johnson

I love me some Dogfights. If the subject matter is even remotely up your (MiG) alley, make this set a permanent resident of your DVD hangar.

Filled with many great interviews with actual participants in much of the action being documented, coupled with the "in the cockpit" feel of the show, there is no other documentary on the subject of dogfighting quite like it.

7.0 DVD Talk | Jeffrey Kauffman

Dogfights will easily appeal to any plane fan, whether or not they happen to like flight simulator games. Students of battle strategies will be similarly enthused by the series' attention to detail as it explores the final frontier (on this planet, anyway) of warfare. Recommended.

7.0 DVD Authority | Fusion3600

These dogfights are dissected on a personal level, either by those actually involved or by other professional pilots, so you're taken right into the thick of things. The show explores not just United States pilots either, but both sides in numerous conflicts, so the perspective is priceless here.
