quick note.
Its going to be due for an L check which isn't really a heavy check. Its about ~1 week long.
The 32S fleet get L checks (think C-check) and M/H checks (which would be the HMV/D-check)
Ls are mostly done in-house, M/H are done by vendors.
L stands for letter check
M stands for major
H stands for heavy.
I can't remember which is the heavier check between M and H.
