This is really cool! It's more of a specification sheet than a user guide or operation manual though.

This is what a pilot's operating handbook looks like for an aircraft like a Cessna: https://www.purdueaviationllc.com/storage/app/media/Forms/PO...

Interesting! Since a customer for a satellite launch is more like a passenger than a pilot, I see where the differences come from.

The Falcon users guide is far more detailed than the one for Starship currently is by the way. I shared the latter because it is brand-new and seems to indicate that SpaceX is already certain enough of their design for Starship to provide specifications for launch services.

Here is the Falcon users guide for comparison:

Thanks for posting. In all this C19 mess SpaceX is a welcome relief to remember that humans are back reaching for the stars once again.

Would love to see the Reference Manual! Need to know how to top up the washer fluid? change out brake lights? no problem!
