Space Combat

In space combat when attacking it seems to be the pilot that resolves the attack.
If I was to have a ship that had say, two gun turrets on it like in a certain space opera movie, and they were operated by two players whilst the flying was done by the pilot how would I go about running it? - I guess if there was just one co-pilot who was operating the weapons I could have them roll the attack, but if there's two or more gunners and only one attack to be made...
I feel I am missing something obvious, but want to be able to keep other players in the ship apart from the pilot player happy and involved.
@Bashman - Btw, I like the name "Centurion Eagle" on p60 for the blockade runner. That certain sci-fi reference/play on words isn't lost on me - I used the name Centurion Osprey (the Ossie) myself as my name for a flying pirate ship in an Exalted game I was in.
