Off topic but interesting - this is the F-16's display at MCAS Miramar show on 15-Oct-2004.

N105TB from IWA to DRA
After a brief stop at Williams-Gateway, N105TB departed for DRA which is Desert Rock, NV. This is the point where the aircraft stops being processed by the FAA systems; it doesn't actually land at DRA airport of course, but having descended to 14000feet or so over DRA changes to Military radar control at Nellis and continues to Groom Lake.
A Red Flag exercise is on at the moment with the usual players including Aussies and Brits. I don't recall N105TB being at Groom at the same time as Red Flag so maybe there will be some reports of it at and around Nellis over the next few weeks.
N105TB to Groom via TUL and IWA
Sat on the hotel balcony listening to LA Center in Palm Springs; just down the road an hour or so ago N105TB left Williams-Gateway for Groom Lake. Unfortunately its track is a little too far east of my present position to see.....shame!
N404PA meanwhile has gone to MIA.
N105TB popped in at IND
presumably just as a tech stop, but did a day return from BED to TUL on 8-Oct. There's some Gulftream dealerships there so perhaps they were picking up some spares.
Meanwhile, N404PA is still at Pt Mugu playing around between there and San Clemente Island and San Nicolas Island
