I'd love for a group of folks to get together in game and try to recreate this iconic screenshot from the BBC Elite manual:

If I had more time (and friends) I might be tempted to have a go myself. It looks like you'd need two Cobras (preferably wireframe-skinned), a Python, a couple of Sidewinders, a camera ship and someone to blow themselves up to recreate the explosion. The ship bottom-right is a Mamba I believe, which we don't have yet, but a Hauler might work in that orientation.

I'd like to see the Frontier intro redone with ED assets.
