I was just wondering what manoeuvres you find yourselves using most often.

I'm just getting the hang of the Immelman and finding it very useful to get behind and above enemies but haven't really got into anything more complicated yet.

I'm sure when you know how to perform a particular move the written description makes total sense but for me its hard to visualize what the description is trying to communicate. Might be a good idea to Youtube the manoeuvres themselves?

I've been trying to practice turning and looping while maintaining lock on a target as well. Still gets me pretty disorientated and often leads to a stall but I'm getting better.

Hello, i strongly suggest you to read this:

Those rules have been very helpfull for me.

p.s.: I fly simulator only

Have fun
