It's Pelosi, and what B757? Can somebody identify "Nancy's B757" or
demonstrate that she has ever used or even requested such at thing


She did request it. She believed that the GulfStream Hastered had used
was too small. If you have a newspaper you'll find the story inside.


I've found the story and it includes Tony Snow from the White House blowing
the whistle on the whole issue and defending Pelosi.

Maybe it's 'cause they don't want too much attention drawn to Cheney's C-17,
(anybody here in Jackson Hole to confirm this? A woman at the FBO said
whenever he comes home, a C-17 shows up with security and all and
monkeywrenches all of the GA operations there.)

Or, maybe Tony Snow is telling it straight. But the White House is
defending Pelosi in the articles I've read today.

I live here in the "Hole" and my plane is based at JAC. Unless you sat
here and watched the carnival everytime Dick comes home to roost you
would never believe how much money is spent. It will make you shake
your head in disbelief. The last time he was here they used 2 C-17's,
a 757 and god knows what other support stuff, The C-130 into terrain
was a Clinton support plane carrying secret service stuff they use to
listen to all the cell phones and read emails. Ya think they don't
monitor stuff?? This posting will really **** them off,. G

If I had my d'ruthers between a C-17 and the C-130, I think I'd ride in the
latter and have them leave room for me in the cockpit. (He's the VP, he can
do whatever he wants.)

If I'm ever the Speaker or VP, I'd want something modest and not tied to the
current fleet. Specifically, I want a B-17. And passengers? They don't
get to sit unless it's on the floor during takeoff and landing. They'll
stand for twelve hours like Grandpa did, and if they have to pee, that's
what the waist window is for. The nose would provide as suitable office.

For shorter trips I'd settle for a more economical B-25.
