Or try swapping countries...? Some people always complain of seeing Spitfires etc., yet the most popular plane I see are P51s, La7s, 190s & 109s.

Bish have a lot of RAF squads so the enemy will see a lot of RAF aircraft. Rook (or is it Knights?) have a lot of Luftwaffe aircraft so Bish see a lot of 109s and 190s. Might be worth a try...?

If new guys can't fly the easy planes, then who should? Vets? We're the last ones to need a crutch. On the other hand, I can see where there should be some privilege for being a paying member. The downside is that I'm not sure how it could be implemented within the game.

Last night Spitfires were the bane of my existence. 90% of the planes that popped me last night were Spitfires- IX, V, and Seafire. The other 10% were LA-7s. Then again, I flew the F4U-1 and Ki-61 for most of the night.

Its already too easy to smack down the 2-weekers. Let'em keep their crutches so at least I'll have some good fights and maybe - MAYBE - the new guys won't school like baitfish on base attack missions.
