Top notch work! I learned a lot from that film. Thanks for sharing your creation.

I'll have to scan and post up the flight and combat training diagrams from the "Red Baron" game book..... it is quite a few pages so considerably better advice than the "Tip to help to help your opponent shoot you down quickly and easily" paragraphs in the BOP manual. 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!

Pretty cool actually, a lot of online sqn's could use this for manditory combat training as well as for would be armorers for bore sighting one's guns. Not everyone is comfortable trying to shoot down an AC from the default setting of 500 yds eh. and the further "out" , the less energy the projectile has ....
thanks again !!
