  What would you consider the basic combat maneuvers that a new pilot should know before getting involved in a dog fight?

My basic list:
Split-S
Immelman
Barrel Roll
Chandelle

Things like the rolling scissors would be more complex.  I'm looking for basic stuff.  What am I missing from my list?

Just to get back to your original request, here's a pretty good reference of some basic skills to have in your tool kit. 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_fighter_maneuvers

It is by no means the all inclusive "how to".  There are volumes of reference material available.  It all depends on if you want to fly real world like, altered reality cartoon like, or a combination of the two.  Obviously it's your $14.95 a month and your choice how you want to play with it.  As you can see from this thread discussion, there are some who enjoy the real world aspect that is available and those that are otherwise motivated.  It's a matter of how in depth you want to get and then seek out those who match your desired level of game play for help in learning how to do it.  Regardless, have fun!  It's just a game.   :salute
