   They reached some more milestones but they still aren't there yet.   
      
   The landing didn't seem to go entirely to plan and there was still some   
   burn-through on the flap hinges.   
      
   Again: I predict NASA will verbally reprimand them to speed things up once   
   they've had a successful flight.
