Well, it did move - behind a tow truck under the cover of darkness. It's now in front of the B-2 hangars.

Hi Guys,
I'm guessing said B1 is still in residence?

If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

That was quite a while ago now - any insight as to what the issue may be (without speculating) and did anyone see or know what the Western Global MD11F brought in/collected? Engines were apparently run the following day and the aircraft towed later on to near the main hangars.
