MLP Still at 39B

• I see MLP2 is still at the pad, CT problems?
  
  Would have thought it would be back to the VAB/Sotrage area for refurb post 115

  I've been wondering that too, Gordo.

• I've seen one or two cranes out there for short periods, at various times. Maybe they're taking to opportunity to change out a few MLP cables, connections, or electronics, and/or left the MLP at the pad to facilitate checks and testing through the pad connections?

  Any idea when MLP-2 will moved off 39B to clear it for 116? I saw that a bunch of boards/mats where delivered to 39B earlier today. They do look like the boards/mats that are used to cushsion the ground in the VAB high bays when the Crawler is there, is this correct?

• The MLP schedules (so to speak) are in documents on L2...

  Got it. So Oct. 17 is the date for the roll-off.

• Why is it taking that long to move the MLP?
