Re: F-35 to Europe...
Stealthy arrival eh?
Everybody thinks the base is closed. Result.
I'm not going because it will be dark later and they'll glide in.

Better start camping out now then. Anyone for an uncomfortable shoulder to shoulder moment at the fence line?! I think not....

Re: F-35 to Europe...
Just to add to the rumours
I noticed on adsbExchange several tankers this morning in the RCH0nn range - one coming from the Utah area and another out of Bangor on a possible rendezvous heading??

If the trash is brought by car, why not take it away?
Back to aircraft. If the F-35 is stealthy, how do we know that they aren't already here?
Happy Easter

We'd know if they were already there as Paddy would be moaning about them

Re: F-35 to Europe...
RCH 077 at FL260 north of Minneapolis heading into Canadian airspace - would tie in with the ALTRV at 60N and the timing looks good.
Re: F-35 to Europe...
These F-35's will either be from Eglin, Luke or Hill, which means it's going to be a bit of a hike for them without pre positioning on the Eastern seaboard first?
Re: F-35 to Europe...
According to Twitter they are from Hill.
