Indeed, seeing the enemy is one thing and having the ability to keep him in sight is another. I noticed that it's VERY difficult to BnZ, even with a superior climbing plane like a Spitfire IX. I just keep losing sight of the enemy.
I do like energy fighting and I noticed I really haven't been keeping my eyes on my speed. For the Spitfire II, I think the sweet spot for turning is around 175 - 185 mph. It's VERY hard to keep it there, but I noticed my turning has imporved a little ever since I've been trying to keep my speed in that area.
All this time, I've been turning at 200 mph when pulling up from the ground and < 140 mph when at the top of a loop. Big no-no.
