On ASB someone posted that the other #7 was in Fargo, ND (actually a cool shot of a Blue Angel in the snow, something I've never seen before) do pre-season show site checks.

Those tail numbers are decals that can quickly be removed and replaced. I was at the Sioux Falls air show in July 2009 when aircraft #5 as down all week end. They took #4 and made it #5 and #7 was made #4. the slot pilot flew a 2 seat aircraft all weekendwith #4 on the tail.
