Did the runway shrink from last year? A pair of F-35's were here at Easterwood Sep 26 2020 and had no issues using the runway. Although if I were responsible for these planes, I would opt for a nearby military base with MUCH higher security.

And... Aren't F-35S's VTOL capable?

edit: never mind, that's the "-B" model

My guess is security and they are using runway length as an easy out. Jets can't land her when wet.

Yes Air Force F-35's came to KCLL. Air Force does not equal Navy unfortunately. One of the pilots told me they fought pretty hard to get approval but it didn't work out.
