Updates:

• Overnight, one strut was removed and the landing leg was folded.
• During the day, workers removed the three accessible landing legs and prepped for lifting B1058 off the droneship. This seems to have included raising and lowering B1058 into a better position. It's not clear what is next, but the booster is still on the droneship at the moment.

Super disappointing and sad to lose booster 1058.

Tippy boosters occur when you get a certain set of landing conditions that lead to the legs having uneven loading. Heavy wind or sea state then cause the booster to teeter and slide which can lead to even worse leg loading. In this state, securing with the OG is super challenging and often only partial successful

We came up with self leveling legs that immediately equalize leg loads on landing after experiencing a severe tippy booster two years ago on Christmas (first flight of 1069). The fleet is mostly outfitted, but 1058, given its age, was not. It met its fate when it hit intense wind and waves resulting in failure of a partially secured OG less than 100 miles from home.

One thing is for sure… we will make lemonade out of lemons and learn as much as possible from historic 1058 on our path to aircraft like operations.
