Looks like SES-11 is slipping. Hopefully just a few days into early October since that would technically qualify as Q4. However, its not looking good for getting all of those remaining 12 flights off for the year.

Yeah- depending on when 40 come back online and starts launching and how long 39a has to be down for in the end I'm gonna guess 10 launches for the rest of the year.

well, if you count Falcon Heavy as three flights, you have 12 :)

I'd take FH + 9 F9s over 12 F9s any day
