Hell, we need the CHog and the N1K2 for the new players. What else can they do? They have to get a chance to get some kills. Give them time, and they will get into the groove and fly better planes. I started out in the Chog myself, but wouldn't be caught dead in one now. Moved on, to the P-51D (wow, flaming I will get for this single line).
The three planes I recommend to new players are: CHog, N1K2, Spitfire MkIX. Reasons include good firepower, ammo loads, turning ability and/or durability and speed.
