I don't believe there are any versions of the F-16 with two seats, I don't believe Daines is checked for solo in the bird and after meeting him a couple of times I think he's too tall for ejection seats anyway.
Most charter and commercial aircraft can get as close to supersonic as is legal over CONUS airspace, but it would be a real kick in the butt to have the Senator fly back MIL and go high speed pass over the Capitol on his way to vote.
Let’s dream a little President Trump should have a limousine with police escort to Andrews for Trump 1 to get to that wedding. Grandstand and Congratulate the bride and groom...
Couldn’t the Senator just parachute onto the Capitol grounds? I mean, sure, there’d be a black Suburban waiting for him...

I have minimal knowledge of the F-16, other than it’s very vast. Yes, a MIL flight back would be awesome.
