Raptors are parked in the HH-60 area. Probably only 1 will land at FFD for static, others will fly from Lakenheath.

AFAIK Thursday will see three F-22s touching down at Fairford. All are for use for the demo, according to the F-22 demoteam requirements. One flying, one back-up with running engines and another spare without engines running. No static Raptor is scheduled. I guess the fourth aircraft is there for battery saving purposes (like in 2008) and because of Farnborough.

Was a regular at Rotterdam last winter...
Still no sign of Bones, or did I missed it?
If not present during the RIAT, this will be the first time that the B-1 is not present (at least for me)...

Last year there was (only) one 1 B-one on static; this year none are scheduled (so ILA was the only European visit for the B-1 as show visit)

Strange cause the crew at Berlin told me that there will be an B1 at Fairford. Hopefully they will sent one as a "surprise"
