The An-124 was still there on Sunday morning.
The left A-10 had a leak and a pilot in hospital so also still there.

NAVAL AIR STATION FORT WORTH JOINT RESERVE BASE, Texas – The 301st Fighter Wing and 136th Airlift Wing will move flight operations to Alliance airport for approximately one month. Aircraft will begin moving to Alliance July 29 and will likely stay through the entire month of August.
The move allows much needed runway repairs to take place at NAS Fort Worth Joint Reserve Base. The repairs will decrease the foreign object debris hazard from the aging runway which has surpassed its service life.
During the repairs, approximately 125 base personnel will be present at Alliance Airport, along with 20 F-16s and 6 C-130s.
Greetings,
