No - the Mach Loop is in Wales. Although as the jet flys, they're not far off - so it's common to do lowfly training missions that include both. The loop has a number of aviation enthusiasts who reside there. They'll hear jet noise (or listen on the radio...), then call their friends, get out of their houses, and watch / snap pics of the planes.
