I think it was the Air song, though I don't know what season that's from (my guess is 19 or 20). I'd ge surprised if there are any Bip appearances I don't know about.

I do know that Don't Throw That Teash on the Ground is Jim's last performance as Ernie because Ernie's voice sounded weak in that. The Divorced Bird was Jim's last performance as Kermit because he didn't have many lines in that.

According to Muppet Wiki, Bip's version of Air first appeared on season 20.

Last year a number of sample pages for the 40th anniversary book were posted at tough pigs, and some of the stuff in the sample pages were changed. One change was that the sample pages had a section on Jim Henson's last day on the set, and confirmed that Jim's last inserts were those and I Wonder About the World Above Up There.

Actually, Jim's last performance as Kermit was I Wonder 'Bout the World Above.
