#2 I'm glad they actually got them out. To where, who knows. I suspect the Klingons have a project somewhere.
The happy part is that this means that the equipment that they flew or maintained becomes unusable.

#3 This turns out to be the second batch flown out. The first group were all pilots, and the plane went to UAE. Don't know if any moved on from there.
