I'd guess that this is the booster for PAZ or SES-16.
I'd guess SES-16, not much about PAZ has been heard in a while...

Happened to catch a #SpaceX engine test driving home. Wanted to show #Waco locals what it’s like nearby. Imagine the bass cranked up in person, though. 🚀 #STEM #wacotown @2MacTown

I would expect a new core @McGregor anytime now, if not already. It should have some very distinct new visible features.. Please keep an eye out if in the neighborhood. Of course in a save and non-trespassing manner.

So please keep an eye out for if one sees one on route or @McGregor.
Pretty hard to see, but this pic is from my mom’s back porch in the country ~30 mi away from #SpaceX rocket testing facility. Merlin plume lights up the sky during low cloud cover! You can hear it from that far away, too. Exciting!🚀 #wacotown #waco #falcon9 #STEM
My schedule-fu says there is a Block V at the site right now...I don’t have any photographic evidence though, just going off Elon & Gwynn’s stated timeline to say I’d expect one there now unless it’s slid to the right.
