Proof Through the Night - S1-E4
Revealing mistake: As Hawke uses the Star Light Amplification System to see where he's flying, the readout shows what he's looking at. The electronic compass readout at the top of the display doesn't move, even though the picture shows that he's constantly twisting and turning, following the terrain.

Proof Through the Night - S1-E4
Character mistake: Dominic said the MIGs were coming in 015° but the readout says 105°. If they were at heading from 015, the triangles representing them would be in the upper right quadrant of the radar circle, close to the zero.
