I was just watching the news, and apparantly he landed in the middle of Central Park. Bet none of us saw that one coming. Did he take AF1 to one of the airports, then the choppers from there?
Shoot first, ask questions later.

I saw it takeoff at that time and it was REALLY cool. I'd never seen Air Force One before.
There is also a C-5 sitting in the middle of nowhere on a taxiway alongside 22/4.

In support of Bush's NYC visit LGA received a C32 (757) and C20 (G2) this afternoon. Last night Laura Bush departed around 1930 in a C40 (BBJ).
Phil. glad you got to see AF1 depart, always a thrill.

Do they still use the callsign "Air Force Two Foxtrot" for the First Lady's plane?Originally Posted by LGA777
No Chris, when the First Lady is onboard, and the Pres or Vice Pres is not the call sign is "Executive One Foxtrot".

LOL!! don't worry, this happens all the time to us. you walk to the kitchen and miss 3 vip movments. all in a day's work. but HAHA anyway!
why the foxtrot on the end?
it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
The foxtrot probably stands for First Lady.

I think it's "family," because when the VP's wife (who isn't the first lady) is flying the callsign is "Executive Two Foxtrot."
In other news, I hear that Marine One used a baseball field in Central Park as a landing pad when ferrying the President to Harlem yesterday. If only they made such info public ahead of time...that would have been quite a shot.
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 did not realize the Vice Presidents wife needed to be flown around the country or world in a Gulfstream or larger without the Vice President and at US Taxpayers expense? And even have her very own ATC callsign !
