I am an airline pilot and I would like to say this to everyone about flying a simulator or this game and feel they can't or that they need to know more about flying real airplanes. Real simulators are built for training purposes, they do not fly like the real aircraft even the full motion sims. they are very touchy. they are built for procedure purposes, emergencies etc. so do not feel like this game is too hard to fly or that you need to be a pilot to be successful at the game. My kid is 10 and he flies it fine he will not be and ace soon but that comes with practice.
if you want to know more about tactics and manuvers which will make you a better fighter pilot there are lot of books you can read, the most important of all in my opinion is called Aircraft Tactics and Manuvering, also Aircraft versus Aircraft. even some novels like The Blond Knight of the Luftwafe and I flew for the furer have some information on how they used to attack their enemies.

if you have any questions fell free to ask.
