If they have to pull a copv, that'll set them back a bit.

No description in the post, but I assume that this was the mission audio feed from SpaceX.  They have since taken that video private, but apparently they gave the helium detail on that loop, e.g. as reported by Alex here:

PSA #1:  Suppress forum auto-embed of Youtube videos by deleting leading 'www.' (four characters) in YT URL; useful when linking text to YT, or just to avoid bloat.
PSA #2:  Users who particularly annoy you can be suppressed in forum view via Modify Profile -> Buddies / Ignore List.  *** See profile for two more NSF forum tips. ***

FWIW SpaceX have updated their launch page for tomorrow’s opportunity

https://www.spacex.com/launches/intelsatg33g34/

Quote
SpaceX is targeting Friday, October 7 for launch of the Intelsat G-33/G-34 mission to a geosynchronous transfer orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The 69-minute launch window opens at 7:06 p.m. ET (23:06 UTC).

The Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission previously launched GPS III-3, Turksat 5A, Transporter-2, and 10 Starlink missions. After stage separation, the first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

A live webcast of this mission will begin about 15 minutes prior to liftoff.

Guys, most of the known/strongly suspected info like that is in the Manifest thread, along with the threads for each mission.

Thank you.  I had just gotten all these 3X Galaxy sats coming up mixed up.

I'm afraid not. This is to geostationary transfer orbit, so will be heading out directly east from Cape Canaveral.
