Also wasn't there a movie that had modern day US Navy jet fighters from a carrier meeting a couple of WWII Zeros in cloud and splashing them? Can't recall the name but somebody else might help me.

That was "The Final Countdown"

While the flying scenes were pretty good, IMHO, the movie was horrible. the Nimitz easily fit through the holes in the plot.

I actually liked it, from what little I remember of watching it a few years ago. But then again, it's easy for me to see the good in slightly bad movies after I watched the atrocious movie: Titanic II. Literally, It was so bad I couldn't stop watching it.

I feel like I have seen a preview for a new movie or tv show with a similar concept coming out soon though.
