Stayed in a hotel near KDMA so various stops were made at Davis-Monthan and Tucson throughout the three days.
So no full days of spotting unfortenatly.. I was very happy with the rare YEH-60B and the Iraqi's.
Anyone out there who knows the unit of these?

4 Iraqi F16s arrived in Iraq on 13 July 2015, comprising 1601, 1604, 1607, 1610. Not sure on the exact date when they left Tucson but they arrived in Lajes on 9th July en route.

One of the Iraqi F16s was lost in a fatal crash on 24 June, this was initiallly reported as 1601 but is now thought to have been 1609

Thanks for this log, Elmar.
However J-012 (F-16A) crashed in Northsea: 1996 10th january.
Could the F-16 you logged have been J-210 (F-16BM) instead ?!?
Did you have the chance to take some pictures ?!?
