My best advice is to record a track from your online dogfights, then look how the other's fly. Follow them around, listen when they throttle up/down, when deploy flaps and how much etc. etc.

Oh and a big NO-NO while being chased is to move horizontally from side to side. Alot of ppl use this (including me at times), in hopes to mess the enemy's aim, but if the enemy has any idea what he is doing, he keeps his plane flying straight and wait for you to cross his aim to take the shot.
