My favourite part of this landing was the on-board camera view of the landing burn.

Hopefully they will release the entire on-board footage, would be really interesting to watch the launch from the rocket's perspective.

Have you seen this[0] from Thaicom 8's landing on the ASDS? Shows everything from grid fin deploy onward during daylight hours.

I have, it's a pretty fantastic view!

What I'd love to see is that view for the entire launch and landing, in real time instead of sped up.

I didn't think about it, but you're right in that the view wouldn't be great for this one as it was at night time.
