Where do I need to look to figure out how this works? Or are there even any specials rules for combatting flyers?

Look for the 'hard to hit' special rule for swooping flying monstrous creatures and zooming flyers - but short version is that unless the firing unit has the 'skyfire' special rule, everything fired at flyers must be a snap shot (or BS1). Consequently, blasts and templates cannot be used on flyers.

Lots of very specific rules for shooting at flyers found right in your rule book.

Oddly enough, the rules for shooting at Flyers are found in the rules for Flyers. Specifically you'd be looking for 'Hard to Hit' on page 84 of the rulebook.

The Flying Monstrous Creature version of "Hard to Hit" does NOT contain the immunity to blasts and templates that the Flyers section has.
Thus if youc an find some way to get a blast onto a FMC, yes it can hurt it
Note that the ITC has changed this rule in one of their houserules, just it isnt listed as such
