I've flown all of those but the Tiger (and a replica Spitfire, but not a real one). On the basis of experience, I'd move the Firefly to the bottom. Nothing wrong with it, but it's just a reasonably modern light aeroplane, and less interesting than the other three.

I enjoy the Bulldog and Chipmunk, and (being a dangerous radical, like the Bulldog more), but think that you might learn more from the Chipmunk. It was basically designed to train people who'd go on to fly late model Mosquitos, and there are interesting lessons there.
