Okay, here's my fleet:
1 Super Kestrel (flagship)
4 Kestrels
8 Corvettes
16 X- Rapiers
25 Rapiers
66 Lightnings
80 Hawks
Is that fleet too powerful in any way? And do Alien ships have any cash on them? If they do, I just might give the Rebels some slack. 
Also, I have no clue where I should start in order t be the biggest help. Any suggestions from fellow pirates?

Fleet looks fine. Asking fellow pirate where to start is a good idea, but I don't think any of them really look here much. Try asking on our BFS II Discussion thread.
As for the Alien ships carrying cash, of course we do. We have to carry cash in order to refuel, rearm, etc. However, anyone who would accept it as payment for anything would shoot you instead, so I'm, not sure it's worth your trouble.

Celchu, its a legal fleet, but its pretty weak. Try using some of our newer ships--e.g. Destroyers, a Carrier, some Gunships...

Celchu, this would be a better fleet. 200 Cougar Gunships. Those things will help you cream all opposition. As for starting location, I advise somewhere near Sabato. As of this Saturday 8/11/01 I will no longer be able to be apart of this. I will be off for a week for some Navy stuff. If I come back and this is still going well, I'll see about rejoining. But if you are near Sabato when I leave you will be able to pick up whatever remains of my fleet.

No, it wouldn't because that fleet would be rejected by a locl mod (namely, me) on the grounds that you can't have a fleet of just one ship type, certainly not if it's a capital ship that has only recently been invented. Naming any old fleet under 200 ships doesn't guarantee taht we'll accept it, it needs to be sane and reasonable, which I admit are highly abstract concepts. That fleet wouldn't fit.

Sorry, but just the unrealism of such a fleet would immediately require a fleet re-post. The first step to building a realistic fleet is selecting various classes of available ships...

Fleet Re-post (I hadn't read the New ships thread and was just looking at the shipyard link in Captain Skyblade's sig.)
1 Siege Carrier R. P. S. Titae flagship
5 Cougar Gunships
8 Kestrels
40 X- Rapiers
66 Star Screamer Bombers
80 Lightnings
My starting system will be NGC-9517. Any fellow pirates have suggestions on the fleet now? (Reasonable ones, please)

Well...
You are currently the only participating pirate, are their president, and you get to add to your fleet all the other pirates ships. Please read through all relating content to the topic, that is not a request, but a requirement.

Is it just me, or my stupid AOL browser, or is it that the Links to the Pirate shipyard, and the Alien Shipyard are down?

The links are active. Try using Internet Explorer. Unfortunately though, AOL blocks many sites, so these may be two of them.
