a. Look around
b. Stick together
c. Stick with your element leader. Should you lose him join with anyone. The pilot who is careless about getting off by himself will get it sooner or later.
d. An immediate attack is the best defense. If you have an even to better altitude advantage tangle with anything up to twice your number.
g. Turn into the attack.
h. Keep up speed -- it's the big advantage.
i. Hold fire until within range. Bullet drop, loss of impact force, and dispersion make long range shooting impractical.
k. Don't rely on tracer or deflection shooting. Use the gunsight.
m. Bullet drop is not compensated for when you're in a bank -- you must aim high on the line of flight -- as along top of Nip fuselage.
r. Stick together.
These bits of advice have worked in the past and apply now; however, there may be better ways of defeating the enemy brought out in each new combat. Remember as much of the details of a scrap as possible and give the dope to your intelligence officer -- it may save someone's neck on the next one.
