Pup, Zach and I are in the same squad.
One bit of advice, decide your style of play then shop squads. Some squads mostly work with American birds, some Navy birds, some bombers, some Spits, etc. We specialize in German Iron, so 190s and 109s. You will find some squads spend half the time in tanks, the other half taking bases.
A thought is to specialize in something long enough to learn the ropes of ACM well. If you are jumping from one plane to the next to the next to the next you will never develop the basics well. Get the basics then jump around to find your home.
If you want to learn the Fw-190A5, Ta-152 or any of the 109s JG5 is a good start to consider.
