Always keep a sharp lookout. "Keep your finger out"!
Whilst shooting think of nothing else; brace the whole of the body; have both hands on the stick; concentrate on your ring sight.
Fire short bursts of 1 to 2 seconds and only when your sights are definitely 'ON.'
INITIATIVE, AGGRESSION, AIR DISCIPLINE, and TEAM WORK are words that MEAN something in Air Fighting.
Never fly straight and level for more than 30 seconds in the combat area.
Make your decisions promptly. It is better to act quickly even though your tactics are not the best.
