Are these all support for the Raptors?

Mildenhall diverts due to cross wind I believe

From the RCH section RCH 602 and 802 seemed to be planned in unless the winds were anticipated.

The C-17 was on ops Wednesday talking about Thursday's upload and mission.

This from a press release

The U.S. Air Force has deployed F-22 Raptors, Airmen, and associated equipment to RAF Lakenheath, U.K., for a flying training deployment to conduct air training with other U.S. Europe-based aircraft and NATO Allies.

The aircraft arrived in Europe on Oct. 8, and are comprised of Airmen, aircraft, and equipment from the 27th Fighter Squadron and 94th Fighter Squadron, Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia.

While in the European theater, the F-22s will also forward deploy from the U.K. to other NATO bases to maximize training opportunities, demonstrate our steadfast commitment to NATO Allies, and deter any actions that destabilize regional security. This FTD is fully funded by the European Deterrence Initiative.

So I guess they will be going out for a few days a time on Forward Deployments very shortly
