During a mission, Stratton calls "Break left!" and deflects his stick to the left. The following shot shows his aircraft rolling to the right.
In "in-flight" shots of Stratton's F-15 instrument panel, none of the displays are active.
At the beginning of the movie, John takes of from Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, not from Eglin AFB, Florida. However at the outside shot, the radio call's Miami center. Mountain Home AFB, Idaho to Nellis AFB, Nevada takes him no where near Miami.
