They must train over the Gulf of Mexico.

All the bases along the coast train out over the Gulf, unless they're dropping stuff on Eglin. Locals are understanding about the bombs on the range, but prefer the window rattling sonic booms are done over the Gulf. :)

I am accustomed to seeing the other fighters overhead, usually in twos or threes.....just curious as to why I haven't seen the F/A-22's.

Actually some of the MOAs associated with Tyndall are over land. They are used mainly for refueling, but also for some of the contractor operated twin turboprops used to train the Air Weapons controllers at the schoolhouse for that, which is also at Tyndall.
