Primeiro filme sonoro dirigido por Howard Hawks, The Dawn Patrol é, entre todos os filmes de aviação sobre a Primeira Guerra Mundial, o que dá uma visão mais autenticamente sombria. Algumas cenas aéreas foram filmadas pelo próprio diretor, a bordo de uma avião com a câmera fixada na parte dianteira. Segundo Ken Wlaschin, este é um dos dez melhores trabalhos no cinema dos astros Richard Barthelmess e Douglas Fairbanks Jr.. A história foi refilmada com o mesmo título em 1938, com Errol Flynn, Basil Rathbone e David Niven nos papéis principais, dirigidos por Edmund Goulding. Essa versão aproveitou tomadas aéreas fotografadas por Elmer Dyer para a produção de 1930.
