I haven't heard any indication that they have a Heavy stand in McGregor.
They already give special notice when they're doing 9 engine firings. I
wouldn't be surprised if the first 27 engine firing is the static test of
the first Heavy on the pad.

They are?


Probably. In McGregor. They have to be doing static fires of the
propulsion system as part of development.
