Possibly any airplane. Though if a sitting president wasn't on one of the VC-25s, it's probably not going to be using the Air Force One callsign - TWuG Jun 20, 17:27

As detailed in the documentary, Air Force One. -- nm - Reagen Jun 20, 17:24 2

That is correct, also Marine aircraft (the helicopters that fly over my apartment multiple times a day en route to Quantico) -- nm - loosilu Jun 20, 17:23 2

  - Exactly the point. The unit is HMX-1, home base is Quantico, staging area is JBAB (joint base anacostia and bolling), at CG HQ we see them - loosilu Jun 20, 17:35
