Word form different reliable sources put departure time 1:30pm, latest 2:00pm.  No mention of any fly-bys  :'(   Ceremony times posted earlier.  This will be, at least for most of us, the last time we well see a F-117A Stealth in the air.  We will have to go to museums after that.  Look fwd to seeing Kevin and Brian out there if we run into each other.  Good luck.
