No way, they didn’t send AF1 for them did they?

WOW, those are pretty darn interesting to say the least. I did a screen shot in case they disappear.
Not sure you meant to address post #42 to me.
Was the #1 Woman on board?
____________
That’s my guess. Did it land anywhere because around that time she did do some shopping in NYC.
Wikipedia says:
Active duty strength: 1153
Commander is Colonel Steven B Harrison
5 planes
VC-25A “Air Force One” (Boeing 747)
C-20B (Gulfstream III)
C-32A (Boeing 757)
C-37A (Gulfstream V)
C-40B (Boeing 737)
It was a fantastic experience every time.
That stair climb was and still is something else.
What a National Gem. I am just happy those 9/11 a$$holes did not target her.
If the white tent/building can do anything to protect Lady Liberty, that's okay with me.
Nothing new there, of course.
Cost of visit: transportation $200,000; beer $5; an exchange between the Cop, Skip, Plugs and Zer0 was not PRICELESS but PRICEY and it is our freaking money.
Thanks Zer0 for the "stupid" blunder about the great police of Cambridge, Mass.
Col Scott Turner sent a short email message to his boss George Mulligan on Friday April 24th 12:11 pm It ends
“Do you have any issues/reservations whatsoever?”
Interesting.

Page 88 & 89
Gen Meenan questions Scott (the planner in this email trail) on Sat April 25h. Says NY populous can be sensitive to low flying planes due to 9/11.
Reply is that they (PAG) have been concerned about this and as a result have done substantial coordination.
Scott on Apr 23rd says flight path is:
ADW to JFK
CAMRN FOUR on ARIVAL?
then to Verrazane bridge for start of first racetrack
racetrack 3 passes, South to North
south to north at 1000 MSL past Statue
turn west at between 1600 and 2000 ft
south over holland tunnel at 1600 and 2000 ft
over bay just east ?
east bound over staten isl - north of expresway
and back to 1000 foot.
and back to ADW
F16 to fly in with them.
1 nautical mile abeam on North leg.
Speed 200 to 250 KIA
Finally, page 204
http://www.dod.mil/pubs/foi/newyorkcityflyover/Air_Force_One_supporting_documents_Part_1.pdf
There is a map of the flyover.
Two notes:
In SE corner of Racetrack
Begins orbit at 1357Z: Mode 3 2115: Mode C 600 ft
In NW corner of Racetrack
Leaves orbit at 1408Z: Mode 3 3054 : Mode C 2,000 ft
1357 zulu time
East coast should be 5 hours ahead of zulu time.
So perhaps they started at 3 minutes to 11.
Check on daylights savings time. Could be a 10am start.
The quit at 8 minutes after.
So they only shot for 12 minutes?
Perhaps they were forced to quit early.
Ah, another map. This one before the event
HERE WAS THE PLAN

On page 439, we learn that the fighter pilots knew about this way back on March 7th.
The photo shooter is/was a major with the 121.
Project is billed as a ‘high visibility project’ and a top priority of BFG JOHNSON. Now who is BFG JOHNSON?
DC438 is the fighter plane in the picture.

Projo for the Presidential Air Group photo request support. Our D-model taking pictures of
AF-1 in DC. This is high vis and a top priority of BFG Johnson.
We would also like to get some photos with a C-model with AF-1. I would prefer 477 (OG CC
jet) or 476 (FS CC jet) are used. I will have (redacted) or (redacted) get you the supporting data and
dates for this event.l

Much more readable maps at 530 and 531 of link
But none of this explains why it could not have been done on a a Saturday or Sunday. How clueless?
I saw that. They also said the White House knew about it.
I never, ever, thought I’d be missing Clinton.......but I do. Hell, we’d be in better shape with Chelsea running the country than this guy.
