I know that the F-16 tends to be a bad word around here, but this really gets to me:http://www.wthr.com/Global/story.asp?S=1873555&nav=9TahNBbW

The unit those two planes were from is based in Terre Haute, Indiana, where I grew up. I remember as a kid seeing F-4's from time to time (including the time when I almost tried to dig a hole in the floorboards of my dad's truck when we got buzzed), and then being excited to see them switch over to the F-16's in the late 80's/early 90's. The Terre Haute airport was the closest place where I could get a "loud military aircraft engine" fix.
