Tagging Air Force One!!

My kid (who always thinks he is smarter than his mom) thinks this is fake. Watch it and let me know if you think this guy is REALLY tagging Air Force One.

12. There are AF One "Clones" and B747's with similar/identical livery

There is at least complete clone - used as a backup. (It was in the news when Condi and Bushie showed up half a word apart in "identical" AF One aircraft.)

There are also the E4B "National Emergency Airborne Command Post" (NEACP or Kneecap) B747. I have heard that some have the full AF One "livery" (paint job) - and others have the E4B livery--

<

>

Also, check out the various and sundry B747's used as airborne command, communications, and control aircraft - some of which may have AF One livery.

It would probably be possible to tag an E4 series B747.
