Sounds like somone born after the mid-80s. Buck Rogers was one
of the coolest sci-fi-bang-bang-flying-spaceship TV shows shown on
(well, cool enough for this 8(?) year old at the time) SBC 5. Going
further back, it started with a 40s/50s pulp comic strip about this
guy, Buck Rogers, who goes up on a spaceflight and gets transported
to the 25th century where he has many adventures with lusty
spacewomen and fights husky space enemies and royally wins the
space day.
If anyone has the larger scale Matchbox/Corgi model of the TV
series fighter that Buck flew, pls give me a buzz, been wanting to
get my hands on one for a long time.
It should look something like this

Still I rather liked Battlestar Galactica more than Buck Rogers
(until the point where BG got to Earth then even when I was a kid
and I thought it sucked)
