 Great show, some production errors August 4, 2008
Chris Morris
Very 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? ;).
 History Channel - Dogfights July 23, 2008
Harvey G. Gross Jr. (Saint George, SC, United States)
What a great series. I am constantly amazed at the exploits of some of our true Ace Pilots. Season 1 got me totally hooked and season two is even better. I highly recommend this collection if you are or know any history/war buffs. I wish the price was a little lower but, then, I always wish that.
 I'm Rating the DVD set you will receive - not the show on TV July 12, 2008

Great show but...
NO closed captioning again. History Channel website claims it does. So, if you are wondering - the DVDs are not captioned.
There are format errors - such as episodes ending in mid sentence.
Seems to have been rushed into production.
Again - great show - substandard DVD release.
FYI
Greatest aviation dogfight documentary ever. April 28, 2008
Valnastar (Deep 13, USA)

Dogfights Season Two was every bit as exciting, thoughtful and well produced as Season One. Filled with many great interviews with actual participants in much of the action being documented, coupled with the "in the cockpit" feel of the show, there is no other documentary on the subject of dogfighting quite like it. Why the History Channel would cancel the best, most exciting and informative show they've ever produced at the peak of its popularity is still a mystery. Don't miss out on a chance to own this show on DVD while it is in print.
This DVD set contains all seventeen episodes from Season Two. Here's a list of episode titles:
Kamikaze
Jet vs. Jet
Thunderbolt
Gun Kills of Vietnam
Desert Aces
The First Dogfighters
Luftwaffe's Deadliest Mission
No Room for Error
Night Fighters
The Bloodiest Day
P-51 Mustang
Dogfights of Desert Storm
Tuskegee Airmen
MiG Killers of the Midway
Supersonic
Death of the Luftwaffe
Secret Weapons
Very Good Show April 21, 2008

One of the best shows I have ever seen. The computer graphics depicting the dogfight put you right there. Plus they interview the pilots to give you inside information on what they were thinking and seeing. Very good series. Start with the "No Room For Error" episode. Highly recommended.
