Ya never know.
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. Greet, Sqeeb |

Greet, Sqeeb 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. cheers Guy |

The extensive manual that came with v3.0 (the only version with which I have experience) covered BCM pretty well, and the program included a comprehensive training program. ----- - gpsman |

I have Lock On Modern Air Combat v1.02 right now and it also covers BCM well. And there are few aircrafts to choose(Su-25,27,33, MiG-29(A/S), F-15C). Greet, Sqeeb |
