The latter seemingly taken directly from Soviet fighter pilot training manuals for those flying over Finland during the "Winter War" and "Continuation War". Soviet fighter training was as legendarily poor as the Fin's was good.

The RB game book includes "Bolcke's Dicta" which is still taught to fighter pilots globally today.


That would be great! This video was absolutely fantastic! But I would also like some kind of training manual that is more extensive! Would love to have the Red Barron manual. Does anybody else know of any good training sites/books/videos.....I don't even mind paying for something. I'm new to IL2 and have been reading about dogfighting more than I have been playing the game...which is sad..lol. But I have yet to find any type of training manual that is solid. I don't need anything on flight since I'm already a pilot...just want a good fighting training aid. Thanks!
