Chappy's flight school uses a fleet of these aircraft. These are in reality ex-Royal Canadian Air Force Harvard Mk 4's.
General Dynamics F-16A Netz
First seen in the beginning of the film in an alternative take of the beginning of Iron Eagle II where Doug Masters bails out of his plane. Later on at the end of the film they are used by officers in the corrupt unit and also by Doug who uses one to shoot the others down. The scenes using these aircraft are largely lifted from the earlier films in the Iron Eagle series.
