Just got home long enough to catch up on everything. In short, hooray! Now they just have to splash down and (next test) abort safely, and we'll almost be to the finish line.
If anyone's looking for a quick recap of everything (with a slight tilt toward the engineering side), Scott Manley did a nice job. |

I haven't seen a date for FH, but looks like they're working on getting the pad ready. |

Donger, I don't know if this answers your question, but here's a really detailed look at the path from ISS to Dragon.

FWIW, this article suggests that FH may be early April at this point. Nothing official - just drawing conclusions about what they know.

Splash down and recovery coming up on NASA's stream if anyone is interested.

Assuming none of the G forces exceeded expectations, that's a completely perfect mission. Everything went fantastically.

With those burns on her hull, it looks like something a salvage crew found on the ocean floor, heh.
Pretty cool this went off without a hitch. |
