Argh. I *thought* I was taking videos today, but apparently you have to hit the record button (who woulda thought it?) and not the regular 'take a picture now' button. It's a shame, really, because this new camera takes amazing videos. I thought I was taking a video of Gibbs's speech to the fans after the scrimmage. Argh.

Hrm, if that's true about Air Force One. What qualifies say, Air Force Two?

Air Force Two is the name for the plane the Vice President is flying on. Really they're just air traffic control signals.

So, if by some crazy chance the President decided to hop on Southwest Airlines flight then that wouldn't be known as say Southwest Flight 225, but instead it would be Air Force One

True. When Nixon resigned, the plane that carried him to San Clemente, California took off as Air Force One but became SAM 27000 somewhere over Missouri when Ford took the oath. Way off the football topic, but I couldn't resist. (SAM = Special Air Mission - I think)

So I suppose the reverse happened when Lyndon Johnson took the oath on a plane

Also, when Bush flew the fighter jet onto the carrier early during the war, it was Air Force One at the time. Just whatever the President is currently flying in. Hehe, just watch the movie Air Force one and you'll learn some of that stuff too.

I dont believe there is a such thing as AF2, if the President is not aboard then the aircraft resorts back to its original tail number.
