That’s what I had saw, because of a parts issue but I just wanted to confirm. I know it was still listed on there though

According to a livestream of the Apple Valley Airshow earlier today, an announcer who is highly associated with the Test Wing planners announced that the fighter jets will safely execute the sonic booms at 20,000 feet from the surface, and on Saturday the "Stargazer" will fly in for display. Surprises are expected.

Thank you for the update Nick. I was unfortunately unable to get a photo pass because it was a last minute decision to come so it’s nice still getting the scoop! I can’t wait to find out what the suprizes are! Anyone have any guesses?!

Like Red Air would even allow that, just think it through. F-117's have had common appearances at ED in the early and late 2000's, but it's been over 13 years and policies have changed, I would doubt it.
