I wonder if there will be additional Pilot cards released for ships wisch are actually in game. So like Jek Porkins or Wampa ( Black Squadron TIE-Fighter pilot). There are many more names in the EU which could be used for - and for my behalf FFG could expand it a little more.
Additional Pilot cards?

It definitely would not hurt the game. If FFG goes this route, hopefully it would not be in the form of a randomized booster pack (yuck). Give a specific pilot like Corran Horn, have him come with specific upgrade cards (such as Whistler as his R2 unit) and I would definitely purchase several. There are so many pilots from both sides currently not represented that it would be a shame if FFG did not eventually go this route.
Don't understand why that could not be a "wave" Corran Horn with Whistler would be way cooler than a B-Wing (IMHO).
Especially if the X-Wing was painted in the green Corsec colors.
FFG have produced 'Print on Demand' expansions for other games in the past. These allow retailers to easily acquire expansion packs that are just cards/counters. I would say that it's not beyond the bounds of possibility that they'll do this for Xwing if they think people would buy it.
I would be great to get a pack of consumables too, like bases, stands and manuver dials.
I think this is a guranteed route for future expansions. They've left too many possibilities on the table still (Porkins is an obvious fan favorite example) and I think it has been intentional. I would absolutely expect to see future card only expansions with pilots like Porkins, Corran, factionless YT-1300/Firespray pilots, etc. Along with some upgrades that help improve cards already in the game (like say a better Torpedo or an upgrade that makes Torps better at least).
