I suggest the Spit IX for a starter. Its not shunned nearly so much as the XVI is, but it is still an incredibly capable plane (And the ONLY spitfire I ever fly) and I suggest the American skin, (forget the number) because the colors are very pretty, much brighter and more... welcoming then the wheathered, battle tested RAF skins. I know, you all think I just dont like RAF skins. Its not that, I just like new, shiney, pastel planes more than wheathered ones, simply because with my graphics wheathering looks like crap.
