The fighters enter via the main docking bay, where they are shunted back into the Starfury launch bays. (BTW, for those who've asked, and let it never be said that we're unresponsive...we asked Ron to develop a CGI sequence that shows how ships get from the interior of the main docking bay down to the customs and loading bays. I've seen it, and it looks pretty spiffy. Look for it in "Grail."
Re: the mask...yes, form follows function. It should cover the whole face (done), be transparent (done), be easy to slip on and off (done), and contain its own atmosphere cartridges (done). We could've gotten fancy, but it made sense for a station like B5 to order just what they need, not add on a whole lot of bells and whistles, and I'm not really sure what more you NEED in a mask.
BTW, the triangular ships are Raiders.
