After learning a few lessons along the way, like after jettisoning bags make sure you set the switch to fuel transfer off so it will then drain your wing tanks and not leave your Phantom flying like a brick, turning roll augmentation to off when dogfighting so you have full control over the rudder, and that generally Sparrows are great for making the enemy go defensive, and ever so occasionally may get you a kill, I'm starting to get some success and enjoy the challenge!
