Hardly surprising given that it's been common knowledge for quite a while that they were planning on sending the F-22 over.

True, but still exciting it being official.  ;)

Interesting, now to find out when they/it arrives. Never know it might be worth a trip to the loop incase they join the F15's

Probably too close to the ground for a Raptor...

...or an F-15... ;) ;D

Highly unlikely, seeing as they're not here on exercise, or indeed on a 'normal' visit. You didn't see the MiG-29OVT or V-22 go through the loop in 2006! ;)

They're here for an airshow, not an operation, so it won't happen.
