Me-262 Sure the engines had short life and a bad temper but damn good looking.
B-17 Missing half a wing and/or tail? no problem, you will still make it back.
Zero Just on the list as it would be a fun acrobatics aircraft and long range.

Let me pick one from each country, just to be different:
1) LANCASTER
2) P-51
3) IL-2 (A-10A of its day)

Sorry, but i really have no respect for Japanese aircradt, theirs just a feeling i have for them that makes me hate them.

You have to blast it near where the wing connects to the fuselage. Since that's where the un-armored gas tanks were. If you just popped its wings and rear fuselage, nothing serious would happen. At least that's what Saburo Sakai said.

P-51D - for fast fun, and beauty
Fi Storch - for low and slow (scenic flights and landing on mountain tops)
C-47 - to carry a bunch of stuff around
