Thanks for the help, I think I've got a good idea of what to do about writing dogfighting scenes...
The mention of Macross and Ace Combat are good, because I'm a big fan of both series, and I want to work in themes from both series into my story, such as the characters begin able to intercept enemy chatter over the radios, or getting nicknames as they become known and feared across the cosmos, and maybe dump some Zentraedi and Meltrandi in there as well, because of the comedy value of the crew having to deal with a macronised Zentraedi crawling around in their ship.
While I have the time, though, I should probably skim some of the Senior Year chapters to see if there's anything I could use...
