Now that you’re at 6 flights, still think 10 is possible? What do you think will be the limiting factor that will end their service life span?

I don’t want be cavalier, but there isn’t an obvious limit. 100+ flights are possible. Some parts will need to be replaced or upgraded. Cleaning all 9 Merlin turbines is difficult. Raptor is way easier in this regard, despite being a far more complex engine.
