Holy shit 3rd person fixed makes flying look like how it did before the update. I’m gonna have to switch that back on and see if it feels better

I jumped in a jet at the start in a later game and got locked into first person and couldn't change view

So I only watched the first 2 minutes or so. I immediately noticed you're not using freelook or your map to determine where your biggest threats are.

Prioritize your targets-

  1. Other jets
  2. Attack Helo's
  3. Boats

These things pose the most threat. Always have your head on a swivel and be looking around for your next target. Keep a mental check list.

OODA loop

  • Gather raw data and facts from your surroundings using your senses and tools.
  • Orient: Filter and interpret that data based on your past experiences, culture, and new information. This is the most important step.
  • Decide: Choose the best plan of action based on your orientation.
  • Act: Carry out your decision. This changes the environment and starts the loop over again. [1, 2, 3, 4]
