I cast my vote for the E-3 with the special pilot.
Not only is it an excellent trainer for "how to succeed in the Bf 109/Me 209" in the mid to high tiers ...
Spoiler
Setting aside that this is a difficult item to acquire; lets talk about the others.
The 209 v4 and He 100 are fun.
And
very under gunned compared to the Emile (or even the e-3)
as such their over all contribution to winning games and scoring points is frustratingly limited compared to using a Tech tree Emile with ultimate gear.
With that said; once you know how to make the most of them, you can grief/troll the hell out of other human try-hards in tier 5.
Sometimes that is enough for your bots to take the win. Sometimes you focus the wrong human and you still loose.
Extending that caveat further:
As for the tier 6 spitfire with german altitude performance ... its good for making money and stacking winrate.
But other than the german paint and engines has nothing to do with learning to play german light fighters (until tier 9-10).
But hey the OP has all of 400 battles to their name.
Maybe we should be recommending those fun low tier premiums that cost less than a sandwich. And still bring in the credits.
Low cost fun that lets you dabble in playstyles that you may or may not want to explore further. and without chewing up hanger slots.
Even if you hate the plane you can still sell it off and keep the hanger slot for something else
Its hard to go wrong with an xP31 for example. and the Ki-8 is unusually beefy for its tier.
The Ha 137 is an interesting intro into what its like to play german GAA in teir 7+
Some of the older pilots still treasure their Stösser Rotary Club membership cards.
Any one else have fun cheap low tier premiums to suggest?

Fair warning. My success rate at speculative guesswork is much like my WinRate. Hit or Miss.
Usually I start on the right track and then a make a weird left turn and get lost in the weeds ...
And yet it doesn't stop me from speculation.
