Does the TFR also include helicopter tour flights? Just curious....
You will never know what you will be capable of until you try
Looks like he used the C-20 (Gulfstream III) today. Maybe the C-32 (757) is still in the shop following last week's bird strike: http://www.nycaviation.com/2012/04/b...in-california/
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
Actually the Gulfstream departed LGA immediately followed by a C40-C in the mostly white scheme around 1310L or so. Pretty unusual to see two Military VIP Transports depart LGA one behind the other.
Yeah, I was wondering what was going on with the C-40 -- it landed a few minutes before AF-2 and I thought it might be a press/staff plane or something, but I didn't think Biden warranted that kind of traveling press pool.
If the Gulfstream left immediately, then did Biden go back in the C-40? Or did the Gulfstream come back?
The C-40's callsign was BOXER 41, by the way. Looks like it's DC ANG 201st Airlift Squadron out of Andrews, but I think the 89th Airlift Wing handles all executive movements, right?
I was not at LGA for the arrivals only the departures, and missed the call signs. On my last visit to Andrews their where C-40's parked on the same flight line as the C-32's painted in both the full SAM colors and like the one today mostly white with the simple blue stripe and tiny US flag on the tail. I have heard C-40's at LGA in the past using both SAM and Boxer call signs.
