i love how it's no problem to intercept a plane now but amazingly it took hours just 8 years ago


*i know this isn't one of those cases, but still

well that would be bc 2 planes flew into 2 buildings almost 8 years ago. they never really thought that would happen before then. they're all over it now. simple logic

I ran out of the building after a stampede of people began running out of the building as they saw the jumbo jet being followed by two fighter planes veer sharply towards our building and climb right over it. By the time I got outside, it was coming around for its THIRD pass, and I watched it level off below building height over the water and then once again veer sharply towards the building. Several hundred of us began to run away fearing for our lives before it climbed steeply and flew over our building. Whoever thought that this 'photo op' was a good idea should be removed from command...why couldn't this simply be done with Photo Shop? Hollywood can create an entire armageddon on film but the US military can't photo shop a plane by the Statue of Liberty?""

Wow, what a really really bad idea, ahahahaha.

I'm sure the people who ordered the photo op are wondering wtf people are talking about when they mention photoshop. Wonder if they used film cameras to take the photo, too.

Actually, it's the taxpayers' plane (one of many in a fleet of 747s that serve as Air Force Ones), and do you REALLY think that Mr. Obama was directly involved in ordering the photo shoot?

[Edited on April 27, 2009 at 4:39 PM. Reason : Obama's stomping in MY air force ones!]

someone has to be the dumbest fucker on the planet for this to happen

1. for something this moronic to even occur

2. for not publicizing it widely so that the public wouldn't think it was 9/11 2.0


what's even stupider is that I doubt Obama had anything to do with it, but he'll get blamed for it.

There's really only 2 seperate VC-25's (one of the Military designations for the 747)

SAM 28000
SAM 29000

They are identical except for the tail number

^ The president didn't have anything to do with it, moron.





Reports coming out now that the NY/NJ authorities didn't bother to notify the public. SMART.

While that may be true, any air force aircraft that the president is aboard is then called Air Force One. There are other planes in the presidents fleet for other staff, but the 747's are the primary craft. For example the VP uses a 757, "Air Force Two"

maybe if they had told the public, the terrorists would have tried to strike in the confusion and people would all start blaming our government... again.

how quick you leftists are to point out so assuredly that your lord and savior Obama H. Christ had nothing to do with this

regardless, this was perhaps the most retarded idea EVER. i bet it was some old congressman like Robert Byrd who thought it was the only way to get a picture of Air Force One in front of the NYC skyline
