Somebody forgot to program the prompter.......... how dare we ask questions............ Now they have a 'flu' to micro manage. It's a laugh riot that the Obamabots got hit with the flu and the flyover all at once. Rahm must be getting Excedrin Headache #45. ROTFL
I wonder which crisis Rahm will "waste" (/snic)....fly or flu?
And wasn't it a riot when O's trusty teleprompter failed----he didn't know what to say until they rewound it. LOL.

Isn't it time somebody started asking about the phony "Transparency" fraud? We're only 100 days in and already there is zero transparency about anything potentially embarrassing. Can you think of any administration LESS transparent in its first 12 weeks than this one? Oh come on. Haven't you ever heard of "opaque transparency"?

Well, sure, if you’re actually going to read the article before commenting. But where’s the challenge in that? </s>
I thought I had read it pretty completely, guess I missed something!
Thanks!

Nobody going to work cost money too and it also tied up NY and JH's 9-11 systems needed for real emergencies.
It cost over $300,000 but they're probably lying about that too.

Not so. Look up a guy named Heater Heatley and his pics. He was an F-14 RIO and took a ton of great shots from the back seat. Okay, I found a handful of his pictures posted on line and every one of them has canopy reflections. Not to say that they aren't good pictures, but all of them I found looking through 50 or so websites have reflections. Got a link to any of his "great shots" that don't have canopy reflections?

The pilots of Air Force One need to maintain their minimums to stay qualified. It's similar with civilian pilots. We are required to do 3 take offs and landings (full stop) every 90 days in type and are required to do a biannual flight review with an instructor every two years in the most complex aircraft we operate. Instrument rated pilots are required to do more.
I have a couple of friends who either were or are Air Force or Navy pilots and I'm aware that they are required to stay current and often combine missions for that purpose. My question was if this was indeed a "training mission" as the White House claimed, what precisely were they training for? Has there ever been another "training mission" that anyone can point to that called for Air Force One to fly around lower Manhattan (unannounced) with an F-16 in trail? Certainly hasn't happened since 9/11 that I'm aware of. If it was indeed a training mission, fine. I suspect this was just another Obamalamadingdong excuse to shift blame to anyone but himself, though.....

No need for the questions. The answer is that the President is Bush League and overwhelmed with power.

Probably VFR/IFR training. As for the photo op, the Statue of Liberty is one of the standard backdrops for airplane porn.
