Bush's Trip: 747 or C-17 Which would you Choose?

If I were the pres and I was making the decision, for obvious reasons,
I wouldn't want to go anywhere without AF-1 being within a Limo rides
distance!!!, Including stateside.

Pavement???
Most international airports (baghdad included) have cement parking
ramps just to avoid that sinking. Your right about parking on a 140
degree asphalt runway though.

Your in charge of flying the president to Baghdad

Your choices are a 747 or a C-17. The G5 is out since you have
to make a refueling stop which could blow security.

Wouldn't it also sink into the pavement on many runways
when parked for more than a few hours?
