Thanks for sending the picture. I only discovered now that I also wrote it down as such during the show. However, I shot this picture on the Tuesday before the show! Things can change rather fast!
Indeed! Also,per my earlier post I logged 165573 as "WL02"
Thanks Andrew, I missed that one. I added it in the log above.

Paul,
Small corrections:
Unit should be VMX-1 instead of HMX-1
The T-38 is an A model, not a C.
166758 should be 166726.
Cheers,
Melchior

Hmm, that's weird. In that case it looks like they "painted" it as VMFA-122 aircraft in nov2017 and returned it to VMFA-211 afterwards...
