Indeed. It's just they wanted to tie the two things together, so having the fighters creating contrails in the first place, much less a heart shape, was just a matter of artistic license. And, as Bobby notes, it's VERY artistic.

Isn't she 15? Ranka, that is? Alto's 16, and Sheryl's 17 if I remember things correctly. Which means she's still not going to reach her majority for at least a year or two.

It's also a good idea to keep in mind that Sheryl's account may be colored by the fact that she doesn't like Galaxy; and that it might be much nicer than she makes it sound.
This also seems to apply to personnel as well - Sheryl describes Galaxy as having no Zentradi/Meltlandi amongst them, which is part of why she was so surprised to see them in their giant state. And Sheryl's account is probably colored by her experiences with it... but even then, it sounds like the Frontier's designers did deliberately set out to make things very aesthetic, to judge by some of the touches we've seen (large bodies of water, actual islands within the island if I remember the layout that we saw from that sky-based observation platform).
