Air Force One History

Why does the picture above say "The Sacred Cow"?

The first president to fly in an aircraft while in office was Franklin D. Roosevelt, who traveled on a Boeing 314 flying boat to a 1943 conference in Casablanca on the progress of World War II. The first aircraft officially designated for presidential flight was the C-87A Liberator Express, a reconfigured B-24 bomber. This plane was called "Guess Where Two."

President Harry S. Truman's first airplane, a C-54 which is under the control of the Air Transport Command, was called "The Sacred Cow"

Eisenhower also introduced two other propeller aircraft, the Lockheed C-121 Constellations (VC-121E) to Presidential service. These planes were named "Columbine":

2. SULTAN OF BRUNEI'S FLYING PALACE

Sultan Air Still Rules
A spy in the US Air Force says he toured the Sultan's latest personal aircraft after it had just been remodeled in Waco, Texas. The Sultan bought the Airbus A340-212 brand new for roughly $100m and had it flown to Waco where the interior was completely removed. Then he had the US defence contractor Raytheon install $120m worth of improvements inside and out. And yes, he says, the sinks are indeed solid gold and one of them is Lalique crystal.

The spy said he had gained entrance into nuclear weapons storage areas more easily than getting in to see the Sultan's latest toy (with his concealed camera).

  14. It seems like everyone loves the F1 Keto supplementary pills today for an effective weight loss process. Ketosis supplement aims to lift the metabolic rate of the body, to enter the fat-burning process quickly. Compared to the traditional ketogenic diet, this is the best source to try today because they focus on low-carb foods, which leads to nutritional deficiency and is tough to carry for long months.
