Re:F-35C Carrier Trials

If correct, this would mean no slippage to the plan since Jan 2014.
I would rather doubt that, not much is flying and what is flying is limited because of the unresolved engine problem. Six more days left in September and without a release by the safety folks by September 30, everything starts slipping according to General Bogdan.

BTW, I wonder if there has been a solution to transporting spare engines to the carrier as they are too big and heavy for what was to be conventional transport.
