Nice summary on the two planes by Chuck W. One thing though. While landings with an Extra or other models with fuselage mounted gear are indeed practically automatic, landings with warbirds, particularly those with wing mounted gear, are anything but. They will indeed teach you to land with the throttle and not the elevator. They take practice and can be frustrating, but the satisfaction you can derive from a smooth, scale landing is a nice part of this hobby (at least for me).
Yep. with a scale Mustang you either make a great landing or a bad one, not many that are in between. I've broken a few props, scratched some spinners and knocked out some gear. Once you figure it out though it is beautiful to watch.
