Sharman said that Pelosi has in the past used the C-20B and the slightly larger C-37A, depending on availability, and that these may or may not be able to make a nonstop cross-country flight depending on conditions. He confirms that Pelosi has used the C-32 once and only once, when no other planes were available."

Let us hope that she has 8 hours fuel for a 9 hour flight.

That would be a waste of a perfectly good airplane. There are less expensive ways to be rid of Nancy Pelosi.

Yeah, he’s spent no money or time at all on the artwork redesign. You think he did it all himself in his spare time?

Let me guess, you think the redesign is a masterful stroke of genius.

He didn’t do any of it, it was done for him. I’m not particularly fond of it, although I’m not that wedded to the current design, either.

Given the amount of money he talked Boeing out of for the contract, I don’t give two ****s about how much money he spent on that artwork, if any. You’d have to be an idiot to think that the design time for the artwork is significant, compared to the cost reduction he’s already negotiated. Hell, maybe it’s even included in the contract price.

Feel free to be an idiot. I know you can’t stand the guy, but surely you don’t want to come across to the rest of us as that ****ing stupid.

Pick better arguments.

Fake news! Prez Trump wants his mug on the nose of the aircraft - not on the ass end! It needs to be a long nose, too, due to his Pinocchio status.

Did I post something that was inaccurate?!

Yes. And it's rare that you post something that is accurate.

Sheesh, Trump's own private plane is bland. The AF1 redesign he liked is understated. So out comes the fantasy TDS goggles.

island911 06-15-2019 09:05 AM

A thread designed to rail against our POTUS -for suggesting a rather noncontroversial AF1 paint job- is somehow only now PARFable?

ah yeah... :rolleyes:

KFC911 06-15-2019 09:14 AM

Yep...bichez ;)....

Imo, AF1 paint is yet another example The Great Orange-holio parading his arrogance. NOTHING is beyond his self-aggrandized purview. Most importantly to him, perception (paint) is EVERYTHING--just as it is with every source of dysfunction (including those drunk on their own ego). The guy is the contemporary poster-child for narcissism and a 10 minute conversation with anyone still in support of his ways would likely reveal something similar in them not dissimilar to the way Trump adores all delusional despots. As always, ymmv.

Oye.

And WHAT IF... some govt engineers noted that AF1 would perform better with a white roof and dark underbelly?

That was my first thought. Have you ever wondered why most all jets are white (esp the roofs)?

This Assuming the Negative with anything Trump is a sickness. Really.

island911 06-15-2019 09:52 AM

I'll add, if you want to rail against Trump, the color scheme of his private 767 plane is stupid, for the very same reason that the proposed AF1 color scheme is smart. --Trumps black (dark) top is the opposite of what performs well.
