Seems like a great flick so far. It's on now on the Military channel.

Faceshot, one of the pilots in training is from Norwood, Ma., not too far from where I grew up in Framingham, Ma.

I had to cut out and pick up the wife at work, so I'm watching it again now.

In Greek legend, he was the son of the God Apollo who was accidentally killed when he stepped over the white line.

I was able to "obtain" a copy online some time back and thought was an ok movie but have seen much better ,just cant quite figure out why it shows the training of F-14 and the documentary was released in 2008  ???

The filming takes place in 2005 (the date was mentioned somewhere in the movie), and the F-14 was not retired until, I believe, 2006. They mention in the film that these are the last pilots to train in the F-14.
