      The VP of launch clarified on xitter that it’ll stay down until needed.

        Also, It’s awesome to see Dragon 2 consistently launching from Pad 40. While the crew arm has come down at 39A for maintenance and to clear the way for Falcon Heavy and Starship, we’ll maintain the capability to call up Crew missions at 39A if needed.

        @turkeybeaver is Kiko Dontchev, VP of launch at SpaceX.
