SpaceX just posted a photo of all three Falcons in the aerie - er, hangar - after the arrival of JCSAT-14's booster.

SpaceX, on Flickr
"We're going to need a bigger hangar..."
Every last engine has been removed from the CRS-8 booster, while the Orbcomm booster still retains the four seen in earlier photos. Follow the link for higher resolution and interesting overhead views at the pad end of the hangar, as well as a close up of the JCSAT interstage, where it appears that chunks of debris liberated from the grid fins peppered the walls of the interstage during re-entry.

Excellent!
Remember. This is an update only thread. You can't just post photos from other sites (as in news sites, etc. Official images are fine)...it's called copyright. At least post a link or the photos will be deleted. We have the Stage thread in the reusable section (where the soot lines were discussed to death). And now we'll move to a processing thread for this stage too shortly.

This is an UPDATEs thread. Not a DISCUSSION thread. Plenty of posts here belong on the DISCUSSION thread.
Perhaps you don't understand how to do this.
Hit QUOTE on the post you'd like to respond.
Type in your answer just like you'd normally do. Don't hit the Post button.
The copy everything into the clipboard. Close the page without a Post.
Go into the DISCUSSION thread, hit REPLY, and paste the whole thing and post it there.
Voilla, your reply is now on the DISCUSSION thread.
Only post here if you have relevant information.
Even a QUESTION about an UPDATE, really belongs on the DISCUSSION thread.
If your question prompts the UPDATE post to be improved, then the mods/original poster can come on the UPDATE thread and improve it.

What he said.
I just split off a bunch of stuff. If it didn't have "congratulations" in it, looked like a question or a discussion, and didn't have a link to an external site or an image, it got moved to the discussion thread

Landed with 3 seconds of fuel remaining!
That per SpaceX Mission Integrator Lauren Lyons on the hosted Thaicom-8 webcast at about T-17:00.
From Steven's excellent coverage, in this case on the Thaicom-8 discussion thread:
Screen grabs from the hosted webcast.
Our presenters. I thought the addition of "Earth" for the location of Hawthorne was amusing.
JCSat 14 entered atmosphere at 6300 km/h (1750 m/s). Five times aerodynamic heating of CRS-8. Landing burn at 850 m altitude. Touchdown at 4 km/h (1.1 m/s) 2 m from bulls eye. Three seconds of propellant remaining. The TVC actuator was off in yesterdays attempt.
The TVC remark is concerning Thaicom 8's initial scrub, the rest, JCSat 14's S1 landing.

a re-cap of everything JCSAT-14
SpaceX - JCSAT-16 - Good Fortune - 8.7.2016USLaunchReport
Published on Aug 7, 2016
We were so impressed with the full firing of JCSAT-14. We truly believe the sincere wishes written on the fairings by Sky Perfect Corporation employee's from Japan, had an impact on the successful test fire. We are very much looking forward to JCSAT-16 for success and re-flight.
