About L-39 and F-86 Sabre
I am thinking of getting one of these two birds before the summer sale ends and most of the info i got to find about them is outdated. I need to know if they come with tutorials, and if so, how adequate they are in comparison. How many missions or campaigns do they have? (I have bought the Mig-15, and i should say that there are many things the tutorials that come with it don't cover. No tutorials about navigation, radio or bombing for example. There are only 3 missions and no campaigns).

I have also heard that there is an upcoming DLC called "Museum Relic" for Mig-15 and Sabre. Is it a better idea to pick F-86 in this case or i should go with the beautiful looking L-39?

F-86 is all the ways better than L-39.
F-86 is faster, more agile, it can carry more weapons and even far wider variety.
The L-39 is great if you want to train to fly it in real life, otherwise not.

It doesnt work as trainer as no one can sit free in front, but both need to own it. So why to own it when you can buy a actual module and train for it by crashing it down?

It can't do combat as well because it doesn't have RWR or flares, like F-86 has not either. So agility, weapons etc makes F-86 better

If the campaign is a big part of it, then neither aircraft will suit your interests. We've been waiting on a sabre campaign for a couple of years now. The reality is it is never coming.

I researched both thos as well as the Mig-15 and watched a lot of you tube videos about both abd combat between the Mig and the Saber... after watching videos and reading for a couple days the manuels, and the quick start manuels for both and watching training videos for them I finally decided on the Saber.

I am a newbie and the Sabor looks less complicated for a biginner to learn on as it is not as complicated and doesnt have as many things to have to try to remember.. I like the more simple aspect of learning it over even the free ones or the ones on FC3 which I also purchased...

This way I can learn simpler and then move up to more complicated..
If yu are already into some planes and just want more fast paced combat go with other planes and be willing to pay a higher price for them if they include a lot of combat, dogfight campaigns on it.

For me... I Like Kiss... Keep It Simple (Stupid) is for me... LOL

It would be really great if they would MAKE NEW MAPS instead of everyhting being in just one area... they need to add a south pacific island map, Korea map and maybe a Vietnam area map and now maybe a Mid East Map.. they need to add maps of the ares where actual things happened for the planes and helo's and not more or less stay in one area of operation..

Thanks for the answers guys.

Does anybody have an idea about the quality of the official training missions of the two in comparison? It is important for me and i need the training to cover as much detail as possible. I don't like it when it is kept rough and superficial.
