Hi Håkan
have you seen Fighting in the Air The official combat technique instructions for British fighter pilots, 1916-1945. RAF Museum Series Volume 7 ISBN 0 85368 392 1 or 0-88254-472-1.
For you the most interesting instruction incl. is probably 1933 "Air Fighting" from RAF Flying Training Manual Part II - Applied Flying. 44 pages small print text but including 8 figures showing recommended attack tactics.

HTH
