The key is to know what your enemy is flying and how it flies. Uses its weakness against it no matter how boring it may be.
For example,
i've just been playing against sloppyclock, and i must admit i was abit suspect when he chose the I-16 (I had the hurricane as always

) but i have to give him credit, he knew -
a) how to fly the I-16
b) how to fly against the hurricane
If i got onto his 6 then he would jsut go into a crazy turn (this is on sim mode btw), he was so hard to keep in my sights, he was able to out turn me so all i could do was get any shot of i could in the brief second i had to shoot, hope it did damage (the I-16 is weak) then run away and use my speed (not fast, but faster than him) to get away while trying to lose him down low.
IF i did damage then it makes it harder for him to fly, and easier for me to get the kill.
All credit to him, he knew how to use it!! he didnt stall it or have the engine cut out once at any height.
Also in the game was reddisback and he stumped us by flying the A20 in a dogfight, but he only died once!!!
he knew that our planes would struggle for speed against his, and he knew he had guns to get us. Generally we tried to stay away from him

which i think unfurtunately may of made the game boring for him. Sorry redd
The point is - know what your enemy is flying and how to counter it

you'll soon pick it up.
