Thanks Matt! That makes perfect sense!

Kudos to the NGIS team for the fairing mods which allowed late cargo loading. That is a very cool solution. I can't think of a single vehicle today that allows you to detach the entire nose section like that. Access doors? Sure, everybody does that. But a bolt-on section including the split line? That is truly unique!
