Really? I thought the BK's style was all about 1v1. Anyone killing a plane that was engaged with someone else is considered a no-no, so why bother to fly as a pack? Don't they know that you're only supposed to kill those cons not currently engaged with someone else? If you want to kill someone, you're supposed to make an appointment. (Nopoop maintains the appointment book)

<-- especially for nopoop!
But on a serious note, the one period when I flew in an organised team was when moonlighting with a
very well organised squad who called themselves the Scanian Griffins - about 5 years ago in WB. The keywords? Well not skill, obviously, as I never had any. The keywords were organisation & communication. No need for a pack - we could clean up with just 3 or 4 190s. The only time I got killed flying with those guys came as the result of a prop strike. No shame in that - even Gabreski did it!
BTW, Gabreski was a timid RL WW2 P47 pilot - he once dealt with a 109 on his 6 by sinking into clouds and changing direction, instead of turning to fight it. He should have been grounded for his timidity:
- for not turning to fight;
- being above 2K at the time.
