Tuesday, July 15
11 a.m.-12 p.m., BSTF-35 Pilot BriefingThe Cody Room, Farnborough International Media CenterF-35 test pilots will provide a presentation on the capability of the F-35.
Above is the press availability for briefings on the F-35.

Consider this exhibit number one that lets you know that the F-35 WILL NOT be making this trip.

I'm guessing here (and I could be wrong...trying to read tea leaves), but my impression was that this was going to be the triumphant unveiling of the plane in Europe.

Two short briefings?

Sounds like they expect less excitement than originally planned.
