Great photo. I remember when they first flew. I've ridden on 47's and 97s but not on 747s. I wouldn't hesitate to build a home inside a retired one.

??? Is Sheffield,UK on the flight path of a normal DC-Bagdad flight or did the VC-25 stop by Lakenheath and that would explain that altitude. They stopped at Ramstein on the way back.

Flew many times on T-29 aircraft {trainer} aircraft converted for courier duty that had a camera in the back that you weren't told about. Should have been called a RVT-29.

V is used for the decked out versions of C (cargo) type aircraft just as R, E, and K are used for reconnaissance, electronics, and tanker versions. ie, VC-135(retired AF!), RC-135 and EC-135 (spy planes), and KC-135 (air-air refuelers). All versions built on the same airframe.

Various VC USA blue and white aircraft fly all the time without the President aboard. I've seen one of the 747s making approaches at WPAFB several times under non AF1 conditions. Very strict rules when it is AF1. As a vet I thought the trip was a great idea.

Don't expect the military to tell the truth. The information officer probably doesn't get the truth either. The history of dealing with the military shows they fib and now that guy is gone with no one responsible. They can cut orders and the person be gone the next morning.

Go with the GEs. My stock has taken a beating but they're home grown and have built good stuff for ages. A failure at altitude with only one more engine is...........not good.
