The Kenyan flew into town yesterday.  As much as I can't stand him I do love AF1.  Our office is right under the approach to the airport so I was able to get a cool pic.  Got a few more of Marine One and the Ospreys escorting it the previous day.  Yea, CSB, but the funny part is I my daughter LOVES airplanes.  I showed her the pic of AF1 and asked her what she thought.  Right away she says, "I don't like that airplane.  There are monsters in it."   She's 3.

Good thing it's a work computer.  



I was standing out there in the freezing cold with just a fleece on.  The only hat I had in the car happened to be the daughter's.  She's 3.  It's a purple / pink hat with flowers and bows and shit with ear flaps.  Whatever, it worked.  The state police helicopter circled over me and my buddy several times.  I'm sure they were thinking, "Joe, look at that lunatic down there in the flower hat.  They can't be up to anything good."

We're near the flight path of it near Langley. When it does touch and goes for a few hours...it kind of loses its luster...



Big fucking plane, though.

He's supposed to be here today. So I saw a VH-60 with the presidential paint scheme.

Yeah AF1 shows up a lot at the airport where I work.






Its very cool to see, no matter who the is in the back.  Kinda of a pain the ass when it does show up though.

I make a motion that the Marine and Air Force aircraft transporting the Mussolini wannabe henceforth be known as "Shithead One."

I'd imagine that the VC-25s probably spend more time getting polished and detailed than any other non-warbird aircraft flying anywhere in the world.



They always are clean and shiny to the point of gleaming.   I bet there's somebody out there polishing the bare metal surfaces every couple of weeks,

if not more often.



Do they go so far as to use rubber dressing on the tires?

Hell, that's standard practice on well maintained aircraft, from 2 place single engine to corporate jet.  I'd imagine so.

Air Force One should be a C-5.  The press can ride in the aft troop compartment, Marine one and the limos can ride in the cargo compartment, and the POTUS can hang out up front in the crew rest area.  

Beats sending 20 C-17 loads of garbage everywhere he goes.
