in interesting code thinguy would be to shrink the cockpit view, first, so you really feel like you're fighting big fighters, not remote controlled toys. ABout the cockpit, it's usually what i use to scale my own ships, but don't forget that if some fghters like, say, the F4 phantom, have a fairly small glass cockpit, things like the F14 one easily span 3 or 4 meters log of glass only... You'll reply it's a two seated fighter. well, how do we know there's no two-seated ships in FS2? Anyway, the F22 cockpit is huge too, you could put more than one pilot under the glass area, believe me.
Anyway, yeah, capships are too small, a good exemple are the cuisers. A cain never looked much bigger than a bomber to me...
Still, shrinking fighters would make them.... ridiculous.
