Game is awesome, but very hard. I'm really addicted. I could really use some tips xD I always get planes on my six and regardless of the manuevers I do I get shot down.

Never could get that one to work through the firewall/proxy setup I have.
Depends on the aircraft you are flying and your opponets aircraft.
Some aircraft had the ability to out dive the opposition - P-38.
Others had the ability to out turn the opposition - The Zero
Some could out climb the opposition - F4U Corsair.
And some could just plain out run the opposition - ME 262
The ME 109 and Spitfire were very close, only jump the oppostion if you had the sun at your six and were at a higher altitude.
F-16 kills them all, can't beat an aircraft that can accerate while in a 90* climb or make 9G turns. :)
P.S.
The AMRAM missel has been updated - 150 miles at Mach 4...

Don't let them get behind you. :) Speed+altitude=life. I haven't played Aces High too much. My father is really hooked on it. Both of us got hooked with Air Warrior III. Both of us were always in the top 10 each month. It was great playing with people that were new and didn't know what they were doing. :) I'd circle an airfield around 5k and someone would take off in a zero and try to climb up after me. I'd watch them stall and swoop down for an easy kill and then back up again. Some people would keep doing this and I'd keep killing them until I ran out of ammo.
