IRL pilots will use the rudder of an aircraft to yaw back and forth a bit "wagging the tail" when in view of another plane, like waving to each other. This is sometimes done to indicate a problem when a radio is unavailable, or it can just be a friendly acknowledgement.
"They're waggleling!"

-- Battlestar Galactica (original series)
It showed up in the Reimagined series too, when Starbuck was flying a Raider.
If every cloud had a silver lining, there would be a lot more plane crashes.
