Hi, I have heard that the F-117 Nighthawk has been retired to your Test Range Airport and that you have 2 F-117's with tails on so if you need them to fly they could fly out. I was wondering if you would be nice enough to let the Royal Charitable Trust borrow one for the 40th anniversary of RIAT in 2011. I got my information from wikipedia.

Khalem, thanks for reading
