I had a simlar problem, basicly I wanted to have a wide variety of
fighters and
mounting 6 to a base would get expensive for the numbers I was looking
at (ie
six plus stands per variety).  I took a hint from one of the FT books
which
shows fighters mounted one per base, the base holds a d6 to show the
number of
fighters.

I used Sculpie, modeling clay you can bake to harden, and shaped my base
around
a d6.  I then mounted a washer to the bottom of the base for stabiltiy. 
A
single fighter sits atop a brass rod which is afixed to the base. 
Certainly not
as impressive as the Geo Hex 6 fighter base, but it serves my purposes.

I seem to recall something about a new style fighter base
from GZG, is this correct or have I lost the last few bits
of my mind?

If it is true what are the changes and are they available
from Geohex?  I just realized that I don't have enough
fighter miniatures (we tend to use cardboard markers) to
support the FSE CV I am finishing up.  When you add in the
fact that I have the carrier version of the BDN, the BDN,
the SDN, 3 modified trieste carriers and the modified Jerez
Carrier I am a bit light on fighter squadrons.
