I generally find it more helpful for ME anyways to just go to the DA as Shatzi said, theres always allot of good sticks in there fighting it out, any of which will help you out if you ask for it... When I first started getting serious about dogfighting, I went to the DA every night after playing in the MA for at least 45 minutes to an hour and I filmed everything so I could go back and look at the mistakes I made... Another thing to think about is different pilots have different styles, some like to use the verticle more than others, some like to use flat turns and snap rolls, I myself find it most useful to base most my offensive and defensive moves around barrel rolls / rolling scissors... Once you get to the DA and have some fights you'll see what I'm talking about, I would say I would help you, but I need some help at the moment, been flyin like watermelon lately, I think its like Ruaml said, I'm trying too hard lol...
