Should be... ...performing a de-preservation run.. They're starting the engine for the first time since it was "preserved" with oil for long term storage, or shipment. During preservation, fuel to the engine is shut-off while oil is turned-on. The engine runs on oil, displacing the fuel, and purging it from the engine.

Ahhh J 647 in the back ground, better know as 5EX WH@RE now a days. She is probably still in the hangar @ the US Guard Base.

The 667's tail marking is actually common to all Norwegian F-16, no other Squadron markings at the planes. The reason those other three has squadron markings is because they haven't been to paint shop yet.

The tail logo is actually independent of the Falcon Star and the M3/M4 program. It is applied at paint shop when in phase maintenance at Bodoe MAS in addition to when finished upgrade program.
