Continuity mistake: The hull numbers of the Constellation change throughout the film between CVN-74 and CVN-68.
Continuity mistake: When the three children sneak on deck to watch the launch, we see an F-18 getting readied, but when the plane launches immediately after, it is an F-14 instead.
Factual error: There is a scene where Lt. Grace Torres is showing her fighter aircraft to her younger sister Tina Torres and Maddie Dolan (the main character). Lt. Grace Torres calls the aircraft an F-15 Hornet. The F-15 is called the Eagle and is flown by the U.S. Air Force, not the Navy. The aircraft that is being displayed is the F-18 Hornet. Absolutely not a mistake that someone who flies the plane would make.
