I believe it was written elsewhere they're all hangared in the shed that used to contain the F-35s earlier this year.eagle driver wrote:Any sign of the F-22s today or are they all locked up in the HAS s

Columbus day is not stopping the SJ s from departing, apparently its only the French that are stopping them currently.Bearcat 64 wrote:Think the Americans on holiday today as it’s Columbus Day

Re: F35s& F22s due 6/10/17
Just wondering about the `Forward Deploy` reference..
Could somebody please advise me,as others have the finger on the pulse more than myself.
Does this mean the jets will dissapear for a period,or will they return to Lakenheath each day ?
I intend to make the trip on Thursday,as the weather looks OK.
Possibly a case of `go and take my chances`, like the old days before the internet..
Regards

OK, didn't know that, but shouldn't we use another topic for this as no-one will think to look into an F-22/F-35 topic for SJ Eagles...

Word on the fence at Lakenheath is for the remaining six raptors to arrive on Monday 16/10?
Time will out

Re: F35s& F22s due 6/10/17
It would appear from posts in other sections that the reason the remaining six FF's have not returned is because the replacement TY's had not yet made it to Al Udeid. (Any similarity between that and the situation with the SJ's and LN's is purely co-incidental
)
If GOLD 98 has finally got the TYs to the sandpit then there is a probability that the FF's will be on their way back soon.

Re: F35s& F22s due 6/10/17
l think you will find these FF are the 12 that went via moron 3wks ago to the gulf reg.
Re: F35s& F22s due 6/10/17
The 12 that went through Moron 3 weeks ago were TY machines. The FFs have been down range for several months.colt41 wrote:l think you will find these FF are the 12 that went via moron 3wks ago to the gulf reg.
