Didn't the last B2 deployment stage on to FFD after a stay at Moron?

At the time I remember being in my garden and looking up at the sound of a jet overhead, and being shocked to see it was a B2

Still no further F-15E moves so far apart from HOSS flight poss they may return later from Lakenheath as the Notam is still active and nothing further apart from the KC on x3 circuits half a hour ago ish

NOTAM down a bit before 15:00 local time. Presumably F-15Es departed to 'pastures new', and no U-2 fmission today?
