Thomas, why wouldn't I post this on flightaware, and why would I need to "get a life" since I posted thsi on here? This topic is aviaton-related, and it's the first deployment of F-22s. That's big news in the aviation and military world.

And why exactly would this not be news? Moving our most advanced aircraft this close to the greatest threat to peace in the world? Nah, that's not news.
