- Good stuff !Amazingly produced, expertly put together. Very well made for a bargain! My son loves this and talks about it all the time .. there's stuff I've learnt, I've never known in all my life. The highlight for him was a trip on board USS Midway in San Diego. This one is for keeps. And ... did I mention very inexpensive for a very well produced series ? Rating: - How close can you get to the action?!!Love the cgi mid air camera shots, just like being there with a jet pack strapped on your back and a video cam in your hand. Every detail is considered, down to the jet exhaust heat wave and vibration of the camera as jets go past at mach1. Just imagine being there, freezing your testicles off trying to get the camera angle. Thats what it looks like from the cgi footage. Simply brilliant. Rating: - Best of the Series...This is by far the best episodes of the entire series. Updated graphics, more interesting stories, and as always, War Vet. interviews. I am upset that they cancelled the series for shows like ice road truckers, but what can you do... By this season, support actual history. Rating: - 1 Defect but a great product!Dogfights, Season 2 is a great series! The only problem I had is on disc 5. In the first episode on the disc (Supersonic); the historian, Barrett Tillman, is speaking near the end of the episode when it abruptly ends with him in mid-sentence! I thought perhaps it was a defect in the one series that I had received so I sent for another set and it had the same flaw. I'm assuming every set has the same defect. It is obviously an oversight in the original editing by The History Channel. Rating: - Great show, some production errorsVery happy I bought this DVD pack. As an absolute nut for air combat and computer graphics, these shows are just great. BUT -- I have only watched 4 episodes so far and have already come across a really bad editing issue, the "Supersonic" episode ends abruptly in the middle of an avaition historian's sentence. It seemed very close to the end of the episode anyways but... Not too much to ask to have the entire episode on my DVDs that I bought is it? ;).
