I wonder what flight will get the first Starlink sats. It seems like they have plenty of ships without payloads doors, but could probably start sending them up in flight 3 or 4.

If the next test flight makes it to orbit, I wouldn't be surprised if they do a Starlink launch next year. They only have a limited number of launches per year and they also need to get on orbit refueling worked out for HLS though.
