Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

[edit] Sidewinders

During the rescue Doug says he has two sidewinders left. After he shoots down the leader he tells his dad he only has 30 rounds left.

I removed this part because it didn't flow well with the section it was in (well, not as well as anything flows in that section), and because the previous point about changing weapons loadouts and continuity errors covers this without going into excessive trivia. Of course, feel free to debate the point, argue, and/or call me names as you see fit if you disagree (hell, do it if you think it's fun).--Raguleader 01:13, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] F-16 Weight on Wheels sensor

He also fires an AGM-65 Maverick missile while on the ground, which is not possible in real life - the F-16's weapon system is inhibited by a pressure sensor in the nosegear.

I removed this part because it simply isn't true. It is possible to release a munition from an F-16 while on the groud. There is a switch called Ground Jettison Enable that is mainly used for operational checks, but if left in the wrong position, may cause firing while the aircraft is on the ground. It has happened before, in fact.---edited by guest, 22:10, 2 September 2007 (EST)

[edit] Enemy Aircraft

Can we have some agreement on which planes were used for the enemy please. As of 18/12/07 it seems that this is undecided. -- 129.11.76.216 (talk) 09:17, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
