I know this show uses computer graphics and does not show dead bodies and blood everywhere when a plane is shot down. That is not the point of the show! These pilots did amazing things and performed bravely in defense of our country. I think it is important that our young people realize that these men were proud of what they did. It is not the role of this show to show the heroic pilots on the enemy side. The enemy that some are so concerned about showing had no problem at all killing our pilots. There is nothing wrong with being proud of how you performed in a life or death combat situation for your country.
Me, being into avation, and i know a lot more than the average 12 year old, love this show. So what, planes blow up! It is very cool, and i can't wait for teh 2nd season.
This show is really really interesting. It tells about old World War II vets all the way to new and still flying aviators and actually features the real people who flew in those planes. Their stories have you hooked to find out what happens. My mom wasn't exactly a fan of military history... until she watched Dogfights. She always comments on the bravery of all the aviators and the stories always seem to be brought up at dinner. Yeah, the occasional "d***" or "h***" comes up, but you hardly ever notice it because you're so focused on the story. The computer animation is amazing as well. The creators made it so realistic all the way from the details of each plane to the reflections off the metal of the planes.
