If the pattern of Starlink Group 7 launches continues, and neither Starlink 8-1, USSF-62, nor WorldView Legion Flight 1 are yet available, then Starlink 7-19 will launch in early April.

Starlink 8-1 is currently scheduled to launch April 6 UTC.

WorldView Legion Flight 1 will launch in mid April, and USSF-62 will launch in April.

We don't know if Starlink 8-2 or 7-19 has precedence over the other.

So, is this launch NET mid April, with maybe room for one more Starlink launch before an outside customer?

Edit April 11: Starlink 8-1 launched April 6 UTC, and USSF-62 launched April 11.

Edit April 12: WorldView Legion Flight 1 is next.

Note that the two S2 Space Debris notices run through May 17 (00:01 UTC on May 18) so they are apparently intended to be multi-launch notices.

NextSpaceflight has converted it to just a generic Starlink Mission. The FCC permit is valid until October 1st so maybe eventually SpaceX will use it.
