I'm usually a helicopter guy and I only bought the F-86F as a way of helping to keep ED and Belsimtek afloat, but I absolutely LOVE dogfighting in this beast!

Great shots, especially the composition of the second last one.

I'll be getting this as soon as I can.

Yes. That would be fantastic. I'm not holding my breath, though.

The thing that I'm most missing with this module, though, is a time-period-relevant campaign. The shots I took were from an awesome single mission which is basically just a massive furball with a huge number of Mig-15s. It looks great and plays great, but it ultimately means nothing.

It's been said many times before, but DCS is screaming out for a dynamic campaign generator.

I'll be honest with you. Most of the air to air combat done by Sabres and MiGs in Korea was simply F-86s going up north every day to patrol MiG alley. That was it. Furballs. Occasionally they would escort a fighter bomber mission hitting an airfield or a dam or maybe they'd cover an RF-80 going in to take some pictures. An F-86 campaign wouldn't be much different than what you're doing.
