Any news on the remaining B1? From Rhymes Lane gate I can see some activity (vans and people) around the aircraft (no engines running).

I wonder if it’s waiting to take the remaining crew that have been left to repair the last jet?
They laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh at them because they are all the same....

Any update on 0119?

It's been nearly a week since the last B1 left and the majority of the deployment crew groundstaff and equipment returned to the US via the Omni 767, National 747 and last Friday's C5M. Presumably some crew and equipment remain. There was some activity around 0119 last Wednesday but all seems quiet now.
