An excellent idea!
BTW GhostH, the Hellcat is a sweet bird.  It's my #2 ride behind the Jug.  It's what I use for point defense and furballin'.  Fly the Hellcat like a Jug that can turn some, and you will kick butt with it.  It's a very good E fighter.  Set all guns to converge at about 300 and you will get plenty of kills in it.  It's also tough and dives very well, so you can often escape a bad situation if you have a bit of altitude to play with.
This is the first I've heard of this.  I like it, what a great way to learn all about the other craft in the game.  I'm definately going to do this.  Hmmmm... guess I'll be starting with the Zeke.  <Lephturn looks on the map for a huge furball....>
