I've stickied this post as it should prove a great resource, and I want people to be able to reference it when needed.
This is a great video for comms discipline during a dogfight. We should strive to adopt this type of comms in a fight so that we're more effective. Time is the biggest enemy in a dogfight. The faster you prosecute a bandit, the more likely your element will survive.

This video does a nice job explaining one circle vs two circle fights, which is the basis for all dogfighting theory.
I'll add more vids to this thread as I come across them.

boNes, this video really spoke to me and improved my performance. We all have different approaches and different hammers to drive the nail home, but this one rang in my head. Good find
