Stage 1 has enough trouble steering itself for landing without any mass
at the top.  I suspect steering ability would be bigger problem than
thurst power to land smoothly.

On the other hand, put 2 barges, and get Dragon to separate say 1000m
above sea level and it lands on barge 1 while stage 1 lands on barge 2.

However, short of a joy ride, I don't see much use for a shoot up and
back down right away in a dragon.

Does Dragon CRS have the landing legs that Dragon 2 has?

There are lots of 'sounding rocket' things that could be done, but
this would be a more expensive way to do them than using a dedicated
sounding rocket.

Hmm, on the flip side, one of the problems Falcon 9 has right now is that 
the engines can't throttle deep enough to hover (because the empty stage is 
too light) so with more fuel and a heavier payload you might "solve" that 
problem. Of course given the complications that introduces, I'm not sure 
that's a solution I want.

Yeah, but now you'd need totally new landing software and landing
techniques if you wanted to take advantage of that.

So far most failed landings have been because the rocket ran out of
consumables or was just coming in too 'hot'.  I'm not sure a lack of
hovering (which would use more consumables) is the problem here.

Don't attribute your fantasies to me.  I didn't claim that.


When you have a new product, you don't have any evidence of reliability.
 You have to build this over time. And in order to determine how many
times a rocket can fly, you have to do frequent inspections to detect if
the last flight caused any degradation.

You may have designed a rocket to fly 10 times, but the proof is in the
pudding.

You can't say Falcon is able to be reflown 10 times until sufficient
number of stage 1s have been reflown 10 times to validate the design.

New airplanes are designed to be reliable and fly on single engine if
needed. But they don't get ETOPS certification until they have flown a
certain number of hours to prove engine reliability statistics. (and
initial ETPOS is extended over time as reliability has further proven.


When the A380 was first flown commercially (SIN to SYD), Airbus and
Rolls Royce had teams at both airports to inspect aircraft after every
flight, and systems to notify them of problems during a flight so they
could fix things quickly as soon as airplane landed.

Despite all the testing during certification, they knew that glitches
were bound to show up during comemercial operations with the aircraft
flying close to 20 hours per day.

This isn't just for design problems, but also potential production
glitches where an aircraft may not have had a perfect assembly, or some
component was deffective etc.


Consider the possibility that slight variations during production of
Falcom 9s might result in some being able to be reflown 5 times before
obvious signs of wear appear, while others could go 10 or 15 times
before same signs happen.

Only proper testing/inspection after each flight will give you that
information. And IF you find diferrences, you can then trace back to
manufacturing to find out what was done differently and fix that.

The days of carelessly sending stuff up are over. SpaceX is a business
and gets paid to deliver very expensive cargo to orbit. It isn't some
cowboy astronaut.  As such they are more likelty to be very vigilent
with rocket re-use to validate that the plan is working isntead of
carelessly relaunching them just because the plan was to relainch them.

Exactly what they did with the Comet. They had not considered the issue
of pressurization cycles on airframe and stress it causes on square
corners of windows. It took a while for the problem to manifest itself
and when it did, people died.

This is why to this day, you don't see square windows on aircraft that
are pressurized. And this is why today, aircraft airframe
maintenance/inspection is dicated not just by hours of flight but also
pressurization cycles. (similar issue with the Aloha convertible 737).

You really learn about a system's limits when it goes beyond its limits.

Those GTO flights are testing Falcon9's limits on succesful landings.
And with every flight, I am pressure sure they tweak the software and
possibly hardware to increase the odds of a succesful return.

To state that Flacon 9 is in production and doesn't change is silly.

When you travel into new territory, you cannot predict every problem.
The Comet is a good example of not thinking about a problem, it wasn't
about materials improving.

Apollo 1 is another example where they didn't consider the danger of
pressurizing a module to 16.7 PSI of pure Oxygen.

An aircraft gets constant improvements over the years, same with its
engines. It's called fine tuning. And common to aerospace.

That is why for insance, when they discovered flaws on some A380 Roll
Royce engines they applied to a narrow set of aircraft as that flaw had
been fixed for engines built after X date.

If Musk isn't tweaking his designs to increase efficiency of engines or
lighten the stages, I am quite surprised. This doesn't mean redrawing
the whole thing.


> The leg didn't 'collapse'.  It did just what it was supposed to do.

The crush core is a failsafe backup. It isn't meant to crush to absorb
landing on a normal landing. So this means that landing was harder than
nominal.


Unless you have access to the engineering data from the landing, you
cannot state that the crush zone absorbed enough of the G force that
what was left was not a problem for the stage to absorb without damage.

Yes, the crush zone worked as designed. But if it is designed to absorb
X G force, and you have a impact greater than X, the crush zone still
works as designed, expect that everything above X gets transmitted to
the stage.

Nope, with aircraft it is a new model, e.g. the 747 has over twenty
models and the 777 has 7 and each model has to be certified.

Not so.  There are several processes by which in-service aircraft are 
routinely upgraded and modified.  The basic method is by STC.  "A 
supplemental type certificate ( STC ) is a type certificate ( TC ) 
issued when an applicant has received FAA approval to modify an 
aeronautical product from its original design."

STCs are available for upgrades and aircraft modifications both very 
simple, and amazingly major.  Sometimes brand new aircraft are built 
that incorporate a pile of various STCs.

Another way is when the FAA orders a change for safety reasons.  This is 
called an Airworthiness Directive (AD)

Another way is that individual aircraft or engine parts may be improved 
is via a Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA).   "a combined design and 
production approval for modification and replacement articles. It allows 
a manufacturer to produce and sell these..."
There is a healthy market for improved parts in the aviation industry. 
If you can figure out how to make something better or to solve a 
recurring problem, there is money to be made.

STCs do not make major changes in the airframe and each has to be certified.

My airplane has several STCs; a split nose cowl instead of one piece, 
ground adjustable cowl flap, modern rudder light, varnier mixture
control. None significantly changes anything.

An engine design STC requires a LOT of certification effort.

Which is generally to address something that is wrong, such as adding
reinforcement to a wing spar that tends to crack or frequent inspection
of things found to have limited life or high wear.

PMA parts are not "better" parts, they are replacement parts that are
at least as good as the original part that are not made by the original
manufacture.

STCs make both small and major changes.  For example, you can take an 
old DC-3 airliner and make a vastly different plane from it by swapping 
out the ancient radial engines for turboprops, stretch the fuselage and 
also perhaps add a big cargo door.  The result is called a BT-67, bit 
the resulting aircraft is still type-certified as a DC-3 and it's all 
done by the STC process (STC SA4840NM)
  http://www.baslerturbo.com/overview1.html

You could call the above example "Minor modifications" if you wish, but 
you would be far out on a limb.

> and each has to be certified.

Yes!  That's why the last word in "Supplemental Type Certificate" (STC) 
is "Certificate".

Which is exactly what I imply above.  It is still a modification to a 
type certified aircraft and the aircraft model number is still the same 
after it is done.  Your point?

Oh yes they can be!  You can buy a PMA starter for your airplane that
is lighter and more powerful than the original.  There are a multitude
of internal engine parts that are improvements over the originals. (Or 
at least, claimed to be better.)

And I might also point out that most GA aircraft these days very likely 
incorporate electronics that wasn't even invented when their aircraft 
model was originally type-certified.

Anyhow, if you wish to continue arm waving and hair-splitting on this 
topic,
you are on your own.  This thread is about the Falcon 9.

But there are many changes done which do not change the aircraft's
behaviour/performance but lighten its weight.  Those are rollned into
the production line over the years. So a 737-800 built today is not
exactly the same as the first 737-800 that rolled off the production line.

The first bunch of 777-200 produced in 1995 had limited range due to
them being overweight. But within a year, Boeing reduced the weight of
aircraft and have the 777-200 with increased gross weight which enabled
the 777-200 to do trans atlantic with decent load.

Of course, Boeing also produce variants sur as the ER and LR versions
and those get certified.

If you replace component A with component B, and B has been tested to
perform the same as A despite being lighter, you don't need to recertify
the aircraft.

It would be silly of SpaceX not to integrate improvements to the
production line as they see opportunities to improve things. For one
thing, althopugh McCall states they doN't change anything, it is pretty
obvious that they are constntly fine tuning the landing software.

Also, consider when they loaded the rocket with cooled fuel to increase
performance. I suspect there was software adaptation to this as well.

Most of this is apples and oranges as Spacex is not producing certified
aircraft.

McCall had argued SpaceX can't change its design because it is in
production.

That is just stupid; they are unlikely to ever go into production.

For the anal, production is when you can call up the company and
have their product delivered, which is not the SpaceX business
model.

I pointed out to Mr Mezei some time ago that rockets are hand built
and aren't like cars at all.  I don't think the boy reads very well.

Morgan cars are hand built and in production, McCrap.

Being in production has nothing to do with how something is built or
what that something is, McCrap.
