I don't think the XP thing can be that awful given how the equipment system works currently. I imagine it being for every squadron/slot, +1 XP for each enemy plane shot down by that squadron/slot and -2 XP for each downed plane in that squadron/slot. So slapping the plane that you want to level in the largest slot will accelerate XP gain and you can have net XP gain by achieving AS+ most of all the time. The same applies to bomber/torp but probably +1 XP for every X amount of damage contributed in opening stage/normal attack.

If they really separate each individual plane in the slot to (unskilled/skilled/ace), then it's practically impossible to level any planes :/.
