Even before the update, I considered that to be THE BEST warbird trainer.
But if you really think there are too many Mustangs at the field already (as I do): a good P-47 is great choice. I have the Top Flite version, and it flies and handle much better than my Top Flite Mustang, but I'm thinking the Hangar 9 P-47 would be an even better choice (lighter, even easier to fly):

OR, there is an ever increasing number of electric powered 'foamy warbirds' available, which are very good looking, yet easy and inexpensive to.
There, I've contributed to the monthly (sometimes bi-weekely) 'what is best warbird trainer' thread.
