BTW, the plane doesn't belong to President Bush the last time I
looked - it belongs to the government AND the American people It is
on LOAN to the current president until they leave office. But then,
ANY aircraft the president flies in is designated Air Force One,
right? Yes.

No. Any Air Force aircraft that carries the president uses the Air
Force
One
call sign. If the Marines or Navy carry the president in an aircraft
then
the
call sign is just a little different.

It becomes Marine One or Navy One, correct?




Yes. The generic form is service One, where service is the military
service which operates the aircraft. If it were a civilian aircraft, the
call sign would be Executive One.
