Posts on FC suggest the above are due in on Friday for a two week exercise. Usual caveats apply.

I would think Friday is more likely - gives them the weekend to rest.

Monday 9th is a public holiday in the States (Columbus Day). Usually a quiet day at the US bases...?
And as the smart ship grew,
In stature, grace and hue,
In shadowy silent distance grew the iceberg too....

It's not just an Exercise with those assets mentioned. It's a joint RAF/USAF future tactics exercise which will involve RAF Typhoons and other aircraft.
So, i assume the 9th will either be a planning/classroom day or they will all fly... Don't know anymore than that.
