Very cool video. Almost 150 photos of the controversial presidential plane flight over New York that scared residents are pieced together.

That photo compilation doesn’t have one shot of any of the buildings that were buzzed by AF1.
...this is one of the better ones..I can see why people who worked in those buildings freaked......you can hear someone say OMG AT 0:45...

Another couple of oddities is the people on the ground filmed with their phone cameras a fighter with a red tail. That caused flak that it could have been related to the new Tuskeegee movie. This released picture shows a fighter without a red tail.
The NY Daily and the US News (googled them for a related thread yesterday) back when the incident happened stated there was only one F-16. So, if there is the grey colored F-16 and AF-1 in the frame in the released pictures, then who else was up there to take pictures of both planes?
Someone said the F-16 wasn’t supposed to have been armed but this one is. Haven’t researched that claim but does anyone else know?
All that money for crappy photos. Obviously no one thought to do this under better weather and lighting conditions. Photoshopped composites from stock photos would have given far better results at a fraction of the cost. I still want to know who was riding along in Air Force One for this “photo shoot”.
