    Air Force One in NYC 6/4 and 6/14/12

    Thursday June 14th, 2012 President Obama is scheduled to visit and tour the Freedom Tower at 1 World Trade Center.

    Look for Air Force One into JFK.

    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

    I wonder if the plans are going to change for the 14th as well. The tower had a pretty decent fire Sat on the 89th floor.

    Ugh. I'm currently 0-2 with AF1, both times in poor conditions. This is temping, but I will probably pass and wait for a day with better (any) sun.

    The article makes it sound like it wasn't a big deal but from what I heard, this thing could have gone bad real quick. I've heard a few guys describe it as being similiar to Deusch Bank conditions at one point & they couldn't get water up to the fire floor due to Stand Pipes not being connected/done.

    That being said, from the article, it still looks like they're still expecting POTUS to visit on the 14th.

    It's hard to take chances but sometimes it's better if you do
