Strange the oceanic ALTRV for the F-35's hasn't been removed, or posted again for tomorrow.

Exactly my thoughts Dave,that is why I'm suprised nothing has been said ,it is as if Swanwick Oceanic still expect them to come today

it might also be that it has been overlooked. Rare, but it has happened before.

The RAF pilot that was bringing in one of the aircraft today was active on Twitter 4 hours ago. Highly doubt he would have been posting at that time if they were still inbound today.
