+rdlenk Subscriber² Posted January 15, 2020 Subscriber² Share Posted January 15, 2020 We are discussing launching them both on Monday if the IFA schedule needs to slip for any reason. Going to be a hell of a weekend. Friday: IFA Dry Dress (astronaut practice) Saturday: IFA Launch Sunday: Starlink L3 Static Fire Monday: Starlink L3 Launch Anything can happen though, schedules will change as needed.

anthdci Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Photo opportunity of them both on the stand? Not sure if that’s possible with the distance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that’s possible with the distance? If they both end up vertical at the same time then there is a pretty good chance someone will grab a picture of it. If the schedules hold though they won't end up being vertical at the same time. IFA launch Saturday morning and Starlink won't roll to the pad until Saturday afternoon. anthdci 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anthdci Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 has this been delayed due to the in flight abort delay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim K Global Moderator Posted January 19, 2020 Global Moderator Share Posted January 19, 2020 According to Spaceflight Now it appears that the date has moved one day. New date: January 21 @ 11:59AM EST So, (assumption), they are leaving a 2-day gap between the abort test and the StarLink flight.
