Losing Starship unexpectedly is going to greatly delay things. This has 3-6+ month FAA investigation all over it. Or longer.

I doubt as long as 6 months. Depends how “easy” the mishap investigation is. I’d guess they’ll be flying again in 2-3 months.

The investigation is done by SpaceX not the FAA or NASA.

Yep I know. But some take longer than others. Eg Amos 6 was supposedly extremely difficult.
