Yeah some of the stories about military flight training in general during WWII are hair-raising. Now-NOLF Barin, for instance, got to be known as "Bloody Barin" when it was a fully-active training field during the war. Among other things, the CO insisted on the students flying as scheduled, regardless of severe weather, low viz, etc.

Why did the CO insist on the students having to fly in such conditions?

Not on Netflix, but I saw this when flying recently: The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial. This seems like a pretty niche film; I'm surprised it got made?

Also, the defense attorney is a JAG who has gold wings, so technically this movie is a naval aviation movie ;)

It’s on Paramount+. It is a modernized version of the Caine Mutiny concentrating on the trail only. The JAG is a temporarily med-down F-18 driver picked because no other lawyers wanted the case. It pretty much sticks to the Herman Wouk storyline up to the ending of the post-trial celebration. It more or less skips the “what happened next” you can read in the book. It is a pretty good procedural.
