Talk:Air Force One

If you're wondering why I'm linking stuff to the VC-25A redirect page instead of this one, it's because most of the links are related to the current, specific AF1 model. If the current model changes or the Air Force One page is enhanced to cover earlier models, VC-25A specific stuff should be moved to the VC-25A page. --Markonen

Doomsday Plane

Does anyone out there have any information about the so-called "Doomsday Plane", which was apart of the Air Force One fleet during the Cold War. I would add information about it, but unfortantely I don't have any hard facts. --Mrbrown 07:16, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Are you talking about the NEACP aircraft? kmccoy (talk) 13:12, 13 Jul 2004 (UTC)

British Air Trafic Control?

Does anyone have ny more infomation about the incident with British in traffic control in Nov. 2003?

Can't help you with that, I'm afraid, even though I am British. However, I thought I'd just comment your the paragraph where you say the range is '7,800 miles - half way round the world'. Perhaps it would be best left at 7,800 miles given that half way around the world is, stricly speaking, more like 12,000 miles given that the circumference at the equator is around 24,000 miles. Just a thought - and I'll leave it to you to change the article. Regards Jerry 08:31, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)

PS - I've just come across this BBC item on the ATC incident. There's no suggestion that the US lied to British ATC, however an air traffic controller seems to have told a pilot of a British Airways aircraft, (according to other versions of this story I came across via a google sarch) that what the pilot thought was Air Force 1 was a Gulfstream.
