I actually knew those people who made that remake when I was at ERAU. They got in DEEP crap about it because of the formation flying and it being VERY against school rules at that particular flight rental school.

It was funny as hell, but they got reemed for it. I think some even lost their shots at USAF flight slots due to the uproar.

I know one CFI in particular that made a big stink about it - he was a tool and a half, but his voice got heard LOUDLY.
