Why would they release rules for the Ork flyers separately from the Codex when the Codex is released? Aren't they in the Codex?

Well, the preview is brief and doesn't show us much, but it looks nice enough. The design seems orky without being garish. Only one new piece of artwork, but it's reassuringly decent.

7 Ork facts people always get wrong:
Ragnar did not win against Thrakka, but suffered two crushing defeats within a few days of each other.
A lasgun is powerful enough to sever an ork's appendage or head in a single, well aimed shot.
Orks meks have a better understanding of electrics and mechanics than most Tech Priests.
Orks do not think that purple makes them harder to see. They do think that camouflage does however, without knowing why.
Gharkull Blackfang did not even come close to killing the emperor.
Orks can be corrupted by chaos, but few of them have any interest in what chaos offers.
Orks do not have the power of believe. |

Both the Ork Bommer and Munitorum: Bomb Squigs books have been on sale for quite some time, they are not new releases alongside the codex.
The reason there's no buy button on the Black Library website for the Ork Bommer is because you can only purchase it from iBooks.
Here's a link to where you can buy the Bomb Squigs thing: http://www.blacklibrary.com/games-workshop-digital-editions/BombSquigs.html
I can almost guarantee that the rules for the Ork flyers will be included in the codex. That has been the case for other flyers that were originally released prior to their parent codex (Stormtalon/Space Marines).

They have rules, but no new rules, just repeats of what you get in the codex. The only worthwhile content is the background stuff.

All copy/paste is uninspired by default, except of course when used by the one person who wrote the original.

There is basically no original content. There's a re-write of the basic introduction to what orks are, a few pieces of old art, some photographs of the Flash Gits we've already seen and one picture I haven't seen before or a Bad Moon with some kind of flamer weapon (doesn't look like the burnas on the burna boy models, but that's probably what it is meant to be).

That is actually a really good question as to why. June 11th was a Wednesday, May 11th was a Sunday. Preorders traditionally go up on Friday/Saturday--and the only months where that fit in this timeframe is April and July.

Oh, you should see the German translation of the current codex then. Trukks always explode 6", grabbin claws manage to grab everything within 2" of the vehicle's hull, and nobz in boyz mobs are for some reason forbidden from taking big shootas.
When I saw all the translation errors in the recent German White Dwarfs, I made up my mind to definitely get the English codex this time around. No need to amplify GW's already bad writing by their bad translators.

So, Black Library screwed up and has let a random amount of people download the codex... This is from Skullchewer from Warseer (who gave use the orinal model rumors)
HQs listed as
Big mek, Zagstruk (!!!), Badrukk (We knew that was coming), Grotsnik, Mek (Not big mek), Painboy, Warboss, Weirdboy.
No Wazdakka, no Zogwort.
Relics are in. Not had time to read.
Buggys don't get new weapons, do get Grot Riggers at 10 points.
Not seen anything about FNP at all yet.
Grot riggers don't just work for IWND on 'nauts, any vehicle that has them, but cost per vehicle seems to differ. 20 to put them on a 'naut. BW don't seem to have the option.
Looks to be a lot more options with selecting wargear for meks
"A Big Mek may take items from the Mek Weapons, Melee Weapons, Runts & Squigs, Orky Know-wots and/or Gifts of Gork and Mork lists."
Mob rule is replaced by the D6 roll, yes.
Kustom Mega Slugga is a thing.
A Big Mek with mega armour can take one of the following
- Tellyport blasta
- Kustom force field
Relics:
Gifts of Gork and Mork
Da Dead Shiny Shoota
Da Finkin’ Kap
Da Fixer Upperz
Da Lucky Stikk
Headwoppa’s Killchoppa
Warboss Gazbag’s Blitzbike
D6 Result
1
If the unit is locked in combat, it passes the Morale check or Pinning test. If the unit is not locked in combat, it fails.
2-3
If the unit includes one or more Ork characters (including Independent Characters), it suffers D6 Strength 4 AP- hits, and is then treated as if it had passed the Morale check or Pinning test.
4-6
If the unit has 10 or more models, it suffers D6 Strength 4 AP- hits, and is then treated as if it had passed the Morale check or Pinning test. The hits are Randomly Allocated. If the unit has fewer than 10 models, it fails the Morale check or Pinning test.
Tellyporta blasta is the back mouned thing I've been describing and seems... uh, situational at best? Very short range weapon but causes instant death on a 6 wound. Rolling a 6 on AP causes a penetrating hit regardless of AV.
Stompa in as super heavy
BW up 20 points.
D6 Warlord Trait
1 Prophet of the Waaagh!: Mork (or possibly Gork) has chosen this Warlord for greatness, and every Ork under his command knows it.
The Warlord gains the Waaagh! special rule. If the Warlord already has the Waaagh! special rule then, in addition to the usual effects, all friendly models with the ’Ere We Go! special rule gain the Fearless special rule when he calls a Waaagh!, until the start of their next turn.
2 Bellowing Tyrant: This Warlord is an unholy terror, a roaring lunatic whose every (very loud) word is law.
The Warlord, and all friendly units with the Orks Faction within 12" of him, re-roll failed Morale checks and Pinning tests.
3 Like a Thunderbolt!: This Warlord is a master of the all-out, no-holds-barred, headlong charge into battle.
The Warlord, and all friendly units with the Orks Faction within 12" of him, can re-roll all the dice when determining Run moves or charge range.
4 Brutal but Kunnin’: This Warlord has a sneaky streak a mile wide and knows just where to hit his foes.
The Warlord can re-roll one failed To Hit or To Wound roll each turn.
5 Kunnin’ but Brutal: The Warlord knows when to roll with a punch, and can shrug off the hardest blows.
The Warlord can re-roll one failed armour or invulnerable saving throw each turn.
6 Might is Right: Made of muscle and aggression, this Warlord is the embodiment of the Orks’ warlike nature.
The Warlord receives +1 to the Strength characteristic on his profile.
From NotMyIfurita:
attack squig nerfed to 1 reroll in melee per turn
Badrukk has the rules listed for Da Rippa, but it is not listed in his wargear.
Yay Tankbustas can shoot at whatever they like, and Bustas and Burnas can take dedicated trukks
Kommandos get Stealth now, thats nice.. and they didnt see a point hike like burnas and tankbustas
eww.. Ramshackle got clobbered.. 6+ save when you take a pen, if successful downgrade to glance
Buggies in units of 5, gained outflank and a minor point decrease.
Snikrot is not HQ, effectively works like before when you add to Kommandos. Listed Elite. No slot if you bring Kommandos. He has Ambush and it gives Shrouded instead of Stealth the turn they arrive... still no charge from Reserves
Killkannon still lowers transport on BW
Rule for planks is a little complicated. If you get out of open topped and declare a charge, add 2 to the charge range
Deffrolla gains AP4 and loses half the hits
Lootas HS and cheaper (shocking)
I dont see any way to get Kans or Dreads as troops
Kans come in 6 packs
Wow.. Ghazzy is a LoW but I can't see why.. they didnt change him
Wow.. if you take an Ork Warband detachment, you can Waaaagh every turn after the first
