As IFT-4 had a severe forward flap damage: will ship 30 have an improved forward flap? 80.146.191.213 (talk) 15:49, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

New TPS will be added, but see WP:Forum Redacted II (talk) 16:17, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think this was not for discussion, but a hint to include this crucial info into the article... 47.69.66.56 (talk) 12:26, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you want, you can add that info:
As a recommendation, use these two articles as sources:

Two Launch dates in 2 months?

[edit]

Infobox says launched in august, first paragraph says september 2A00:1851:8018:9A20:AB07:81D7:16D9:5729 (talk) 06:22, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is due IP 58.235.154.8 who is constantly putting this in without any sources -> edit war. 47.64.203.33 (talk) 16:57, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Infobox changed to September since source keeps changing predicted launch. I am wondering if anyone protests to removing "Based on comments from Elon Musk, the fifth flight test is expected no earlier than August 2024." considering this statement is obsolete.
The tweet (source) by Elon Musk literally states "Flight 5 in 4 weeks" posted July 6. Elon Musk is notorious for being optimistic in predicting launches and project timelines (Landing on Mars 2022). And should probably not be relied upon solely.
I think the sentence should be removed, and if a credible secondary source be found replaced with that. Mikal N (talk) 17:37, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
