http://www.f-16.net/reference/users/f16_ve.html provided this additional info in December 2000:

During the military coup on November 27th, 1992 against Carlos Andres Perez, at that time President of Venezuela, one single F-16 pilot, Lt. Beltran Vielma (loyal to the government), shot down two rebel OV-10 Bronco's, killing his brother in arms Lt. Domador. Another F-16 pilot, Capt. Helimenas Labarca, was also looking for the Bronco's but did not find them.

After the coup , Lt. Vielma was sent to the U.S. Navy as a T-2D instructor pilot, but he soon returned to Venezuela because of language problems. Labarca deserted the FAV and is currently hospitalized with a mental disorder.

The F-16's also attacked the Barquisimeto's Air Base, where 12 F-5 Freedom Fighters and the 22 T-2D Buckeyes were based, destroying 8 F-5's on the ground. That day marked one of the darkest pages in the history of Venezuela, which is still the oldest democracy in Latin America.
