IN CORRECT INFORMATION: This video said that JFK was the first President to use AF1. The "Air Force One" call sign was created in 1954, after a Lockheed Constellation carrying President Dwight D. Eisenhower entered the same airspace as a commercial airline flight using the same flight number and the JFK Boeing (VC-137) started service in 1958. During the Kennedy Administration a second Boeing (VC-137) joined the fleet with the Loewy livery. What else is incorrect? It also neglects to say that any Air Force air craft that the President uses has the Air Force One call signal. Any civilian aircraft that the President uses is Executive One.

Wow! You made a fatal typo at the 4:34 mark of this video! The HMX-1 chopper that was shown at the 4:34 mark is a VH-60 White Hawk, not a VH-92 Super Hawk, although a VH-92 is a Patriot. If there is a such thing as a Super Hawk, I've never heard of it. If it does exist, I would assume that it would be an upgraded version of the VH-60 White Hawk. No different than how the CH-53 King Stallion is an upgraded version of the CH-53 Super Stallion, or how the AH-1 Viper is an upgraded version of the AH-1 Cobra. However, the VH-92 is the new Marine One that they haven't even flown the President in yet. The damn thing has some rotors that are too damn powerful that tears the White House lawn to shit, lol! I see HMX-1 Marines flying them back n forth all day every day here in Washington D.C.. I'm assuming they're doing their test runs and/or getting their flight hours in them. Nonetheless, I just wanted to make note of that fatal typo that you made, lol!

[@edjarrett3164]

The parts for these 747-200s are becoming hard to find. The 747-8s that Trump bought will be a real life replacement. The hangars to house the aircraft will need to be enlarged because of both fuselage and wingspan increases. It’s great to see the replacements around the corner. The next challenge will be replacing the E4B. We have 4 of them and the 747-8 assembly line is now closed. It will be a challenge to replace this capability.

[@dmcr9525]

I was thinking the 777-9 would be a good replacement, however the USAF has preferred 4 engine aircraft for this role, so it will be very interesting to see what the replacements will be.

[@edjarrett3164]

@@dmcr9525 I agree that it could be an option for the E4B replacement. It has only been used once to transport the President. The real question is what will it cost to retrofit for the mission. It will also need to be air refuelable. The number of people needed has probably reduced significantly because of the sheer computing power available today. Comms would be a challenge as we haven’t built out a command aircraft in almost 40 years. I think it’s a good airframe to use. Suitability has to be looked at closely.

[@Three_Random_Words]

Maybe some C-17s can be be converted to the E4B role, if 4 engines is a must, but I don't think it's absolute. Or maybe the K-46 (767) tanker can be used, if a fresh air-frame is the main requirement, but yeah, then you might as well go with a 777. 787?

You add in the man power and the start adding up the math and the cost to do this is astronomical. It’s been said that the operating costs of each 747 is 100,000 dollars per hour plus fuel. This one trip was a multimillion dollar trip just one way. I’d be willing to bet the cost is somewhere around 25 to 30 million dollars not including the return flight. They could rent a Boeing 787 Dreamliner BBJ and Bell 525 helicopter and save the tax payers at least 80% of the cost.
