So, the 7 'SJ' F-15s have now been joined by 6 'FF' F-22s. They are:
08-4154/'FF'
08-4155/'FF'
08-4171/'FF'
09-4172/'FF' 27 FS
09-4175/'FF'
10-4192/'FF' 192nd FW
Columbus Day (9/10) usually means no flying, so Tuesday might be tempting.
That said, I believe the F-22s are deployed, rather than transiting.

I 'thunked' wrong. 6 of the 7 'SJ' F-15s departed AM Mon 9/10, and it appears that the F-22s are hangared. Doh!

The 'word on the street' is that another 6xF-22s are due Tue 17/10. Of course, based on the recent transit by the 'SJ' F-15s, they may come in dribs and drabs. That said, the first 6xF-22s appeared all together, so fingers crossed!

Well, I'll be blown, the F-22s all arrived as predicted together, at around lunchtime. They are:
08-4153/'FF'
09-4176/'FF'
09-4179/'FF'
09-4182/'FF'
09-4183/'FF'
09-4185/'FF' 1st OG
And even more amazingly, they might be heading off again tomorrow (18/10).

Departures at lunchtime on 19/10 were:
08-153/'FF'
09-175/'FF' (this was on deployment but swapped with 09-176, which was one of those transiting)
09-179/'FF'
09-182/'FF'
09-183/'FF'
09-(4185)/'FF' 1st OG
Others performing local sorties were:
09-171/'FF'
09-(4172)/'FF' 27 FS
Visible in the HAS area at various times were:
08-155/'FF'
09-176/'FF'
So just 08-154/'FF' and 10-192/'FF' failed to make an appearance.

... and slightly sooner than anticipated (I thought they were going next week), the remaining 6xF-22s departed shortly before lunchtime (20/10).
They were:
08-4154/'FF'
08-4155/'FF'
08-4171/'FF'
09-4172/'FF' 27 FS
09-4176/'FF'
10-4192/'FF' 192nd FW
So now, just the 3x'SJ' F-15s present.
