I slowed down and resynched the engine diagram during the booster engine restart, that's a pretty hard failure that damaged neighbours.

A lot of the news stories talking about the uncommanded A320 dive talk about losing 100 feet over 10 seconds. That really doesn't sell the suddenness of this pitch down. It essentially performed a zero g dive for a second then pulled out at about 1.4g.

Sad to hear Wally has gone west. I remember watching NS-16 and when the capsule was decelerating at Max g loading she was whooping and cheering while everyone else was silent.

I still don't have a good explanation for why the booster flipped the wrong direction beyond the notion that it's an unstable situation and small perturbations can quickly grow in ways not planned.

Other things I saw today: this pilot tried to land 3 times before giving up, poor guy. Aircraft passed 800 hours logged time. Saw a big burn scar near KCPU, and some big storms brewing over the Sierras.

One last observation - during hot staging the booster velocity drops rapidly for a moment, this is faster than can be explained by gravity. If this is accurate the booster had negative g loading for a moment, possibly lifting propellent off bottom of tanks. It's very short, but still a bigger deceleration than I expected

While digging around for SR-71 footage for my DJ show I found an old documentary which includes the sound of the twin Buick Nailhead V8 engines on the start cart. Heard about this many times before, never heard the sound of it.

So, based on the timeline published and the landing zones this is my rough approximation of the ground track for flight 14. Assuming it flies for all orbits there are opportunities to see it in many locations around the world.

So glad to see this footage from a Starlink, not the one with the big lights doing the tile survey, just the regular type deployed in daylight, using its engineering camera. And now it's probably headed up hill to its final operational orbit.

Here's the reconstruction of the view from AA472 based upon the last few minutes of data. It had been switched from RWY1 to RWY33 to help with traffic flow, the Helicopter was instructed to avoid the airliner and reported traffic in sight. It's very likely they were looking at the wrong plane. Crew of jet would not be able to see helicopter and the proximity warning systems were less reliable with the older transponder design on the helicopter.
