Great list! One addition to static is resident F-16C Bk 30 457FS/AFRC marked '301FW'--should be 86-0222? (Seen in background of 20th photo from top of page in link below.)

Also, can anyone identify the BE20/King Air (military?) in smart blue/white scheme with red cheatline seen in background of VFA-94 F/A-18 photo (15th photo from top of page)?:

Didn't burst a tire, got FOD in the engine. Btw buno is 165566/WE-06. Quote from another group:
The aircraft tried to takeoff from a non-concrete surface. A 6 foot
chunk of asphalt was lifted out of the ground, flew up, fell down,
shattered, and then all of it got sucked into the engine. Very ugly.
Turbine blades looked like someone had beaten them with a baseball
bat. To the unit's credit, they brought in another jet, an engine and
a maint crew on a C-130 from Yuma, and put on their normal
demonstrations for the airshow on all three days (albeit not in this
aircraft!).
