What does that mean to us uninformed civies?

Is that a heavy load of pain?

Is that bad?  Serious?

And if we were the ones to kick it off wouldn't the VP be "in the know" and not even leave?

Refresh my memory:  Wasn't 9/11 the last time something like this happened?

I'm not trying to start a panic, but it seems like that's a historical fact if I'm not mistaken.

The timing of that going into Andrews seems mighty unlikely to be a coincidence.

Hopefully, it's all nothing.

"United States Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) operates a small number of Boeing C-32B passenger jet aircraft, providing global airlift for U.S. government crisis response activities. These may include U.S. State Department Foreign Emergency Support Teams (FEST), which deploy in response to terrorism incidents around the world. They may also fly in support of CIA Special Activities.

The C-32B has been associated with the 150th Special Operations Squadron out of Joint Base McGuire, NJ (previously designated as 227th Special Operations Flight ) and the 486th Flight Test Squadron out of Elgin AFB, FL. These are highly secretive units, with little information publicly available about their activities. The aircraft have been spotted in a plain white paint scheme, with minimal markings. They appear to change serial numbers many times - no doubt an attempt to keep a low profile.

The aircraft are modified Boeing 757 airliners. They feature a standard seating fitment, as with a typical passenger jet. Any cargo must be stowed at the rear of the cabin as the usual cargo space in the hold has been configured to accomodate enlarged fuel tanks, extending the aircraft's unrefueled max range to 6000 nautical miles. The C-32Bs have been given an in-flight refuelling capability, via a Universal Aerial Refueling Receptacle Slipway Installation (USRRSI) located atop the fuselage, 15 feet aft of the nose, along the aircraft's centerline. Other fittments to the C-32B include a satellite communications package.

That was my gut feeling, too. Not an emergency... but cancel an event last-second, and take off again just after landing? BS it's not an emergency, we're not idiots.

So things that could be going on...

1. There were "creditable" terror threats leading up to the 4th of July.  Maybe that's about to bust open and they want the "eggs" back in the carton.
2. There was a death of a Secret Service Agent from the presidential detail over the weekend that was suspect (kayaking accident). Maybe they found something out nasty and they are concerned about VP being out and about.
3. Iran has officially exceeded the limits on their uranium stockpile (UN confirmed) - could see a UN sanction demanding a high ranking official from the US to speak - and Pence meets the bill.

Brother, the last thing you do in that case is put the VP next to the President. You want them very far apart in situation 1.

Situation 2... yeah... that actually could be.

#3? Doesn't really need the VP to cancel anything and haul ass back to DC.

It could even be an emergency with one of the VP's family members or they had intel on a crazed lib with a gun in NH where he was heading....who the fuck knows at this point.

Given the amount of planning and prep that goes into a VP visit, they probably don't bump his itinerary around on such short notice without good reason.  In.

I agree that I hope it's nothing, however, I can't think of anything short of a crisis that would cause them to turn his plane around mid flight and bring him back.
