I’ll give you three answers. Overall: FEMA Hiester’s YF-16 Tribute livery, “Falcon 50” for the 50th birthday of the Viper. Jets I’ve seen: Danish F-16 E-006. Jets I’ve personally worked on: A-4N C-FGZS “337”
I don’t actually know how to add photos to a post yet so more to come on that

Ooooh, this is gorgeous and I’d never seen it before, I missed the 2017 season due to deployment (did catch the Turkish Stars and SoloTurk from airside so at least I got that). Thank you so much for sharing.
