snip Presidential aviating story

I recall seeing AFOne fly into PVD (Providence) in '99 when I was
doing my instrument training. It was a shock to see something that big
fly into an airport that normally accomodates 737/757 traffic.

Sucks being grounded because the Commander in Cheese is visiting.

Turns out that his houseguest is Putin, which may explain why the TFR

(and more important to me, Hampton Airport) are opened until he's
ready to go home again.
