But I'll meaby try when I'll have a little free time.
Shaw's book is an excellent resource. But, you'd be advised to
already know the basics such as what a high and low speed yo-yo
are, what lead, lag and pure pursuit curves are,
I know, that's simple.
what radial g is about,
Radial g? Erm... Do You mean g-force? That force which in physics is equal
to weidv^2 / r?
what e-m (energy manuverabilty)
Simple. energy = velocity + altitude.
and P-sub-S deal with, what mutual support is about in a
free/engaged fighter scenario, and what weapons
parameters in a comparative scenario mean, things like F-poles.
Uhm... That would be quite difficult at the moment. But I'm sure that I can
read about it somewhere.
Your initial query does little to establish your start point in the
discussion. You might seek out an old pamphlet by Boots Blesse
titled "No Guts, No Glory" or watch some reruns of the "Dogfight"
series on the History Channel. Seriously, they are good primers on
the topic.
I have watched already some videos more less related to dogfighting on
youtube.com and red couple of articles. Meaby I will suprise You guys, but I
am not from USA or the rest of english-speaking world. I am from Poland and
there are very few reccurent topics (basics manouvers, e-m and some history)
in my language.
In connection to above mentioned I'm searching for a book(or meaby two)
about dogfighting, from basics theory to photos/illustrations of real
traning/combat situations. I am really receptive.. I hope You get my point
now.
I am thinking right now about that Shaw's book, but firstly I'll try to find
lower-priced one. 46 pounds its quite a lot for me(meaby in dollars it will
be less). But I also think about Yours "Palace Cobra". This book is directed
on storys from Vietnam War?
Sorry for all language-mistakes.

You might try pinging JasiekS, he is from Poland, IIRC Warsaw, and has
good technical knowledge, he might be able to point you at Polish
sources.
