Yes, it still hosts USN training dets and refuels helicopters, but EC is another base where you canā€™t escape seeing F-35s (ugh!). The B-model pulling vapour, in a desert sense, is from this past February while the C-models were doing FCLP in April. ![20240222_KNJK_8058_1600](https://forum.fencecheck.online/uploads/default/original/1X/441941de83e7251873c7848c3772488d19806ae6.jpeg) ![DS1_1395_1600](https://forum.fencecheck.online/uploads/default/original/1X/9a6121ac3a9e4af81f6d19e765bbcff57a5a4ccf.jpeg) ![DS1_2089_1600](https://forum.fencecheck.online/uploads/default/original/1X/f47f40f0673c3ef83a10c08d3473a46d7c5144b0.jpeg) ---
