I have been slowly figuring out that Altitude drops on enemies allow you to surprise your enemy much more easily and increase your survivability. (In arcade at least. In HB, I have a tendency to rip my wings off lol)
I was looking at how I fly and where I look when I tend to fly and I notice these are the things I do:
I look in front for my enemies.
I look side to side for my enemies.
I look down at ground targets.
I look at radar to determine if allies are behind me so I am not so worries about a plane getting on my back.
But I look up a lot less. It simply is psychologically easier for me to look down.
So I started to use that and I have actually been able to rack up more kills/damage. I go as high as possible look at potential targets, drop down on one of them, give myself a timer (really situational here so its up to you) of how long I have before I should disengage and then go right back up again.
At the same time, I have been trying to act as bait by flying low and the results are that more enemies go after me. This could lead to some very interesting strategies.

*Note that in HB flying lower can give you some camo but in arcade that doesn't matter because of targetting
