Hey, the star of Air Force One is an MC-130E Combat Talon I from the 8th
Special Operations Squadron. The aircraft are now assigned to the 919th
Special Operations Wing, Duke Field, FL. It was real and flew the
formation shots with the 747. That was a Fulton recovery dummy on the cable
dressed as Harrison Ford.
The Ego jets only taxied, their flying scenes were all CGI.

Nobody's mentioned Flight Of The Intruder (A-6 of course) yet? Why
could that be?
Top Gun has some nice A-4's in it too.
Not to mention F-5's as "MiG's".
