    "Air Force One" is a callsign, it designates any aircraft the US President is traveling in, ie its not a specific airframe...

    And your point is to this?? Its common/open enough knowledge that any Aircraft they carries POTUS will recieve the Callsign Air Force One.


    He is in India ATM, as I stated for those interested above AF1 passed over here it was the Official AF1 too 82-8000 and 92-9000 Boeing VC25A's this is why i even posted this, This was also mentioned on other Mil Com Monitoring/Spotter Sites. No different to him being in a Marine Aircraft "Marine One".
