SOUTH BURLINGTON, Vermont  –  

Four transient F-35s from Hill Air Force Base, Utah, have landed at the Burlington International Airport and taxied to the Vermont Air National Guard on May 29 at approximately 7:45 a.m.

Their departure is being coordinated for a later time. The aircraft will not be available for public viewing for security reasons.
