In one way (without the weight of two people), it landed perfectly. Hats off to the Chute team

It's a shame that - from my understanding - the main, or most, or if any, of the suspect thrusters are meant to be jettisoned (different module?), before re-entry.
As there was no human risk, I wonder if it would have been possible to land it with all the 'suspect' thrusters on board?
Would have been invaluable information to Boeing and to NASA.

ORAC, as per comment above, are you saying that only one thruster got back, as in the '12' should have got back?
