The flag is correct for that side of the plane.
Since the “flag pole” is at the stars, and the American flag never retreats, it is correct.
This is the same as our service men and women wear on their uniforms.

... and President Trump can sign an Executive Order stating that his signature could never be removed from Air Force One.

You are aware, aren't you, that an incoming president can cancel every executive order his predecessor made?

I prefer the American red, white and blue vs. the U.N. baby blue flag plane.

Doesn’t look mean enough.

The new paint job is straightforward, to the point and says it means business. Without the wishy washy baby pacifier blue as before.

Agreed the new blue shade is closer to the blue in the flag. I dislike the "UN blue" in use now.

“The flag image is incorrect. The blue background and stars should always be in the upper left, whether displayed vertically or horizontally.”

Can he be impeached for this?

I do not see it.

Trump's 757 is the reverse of this color scheme. Same shade of blue on top, red band, white lower half. This is white on top, red band, blue lower half.

Looks okay to me... unsurprisingly elegant (no surprise, as Melania has good design sense). The light blue of the AF1 scheme has always struck me as being too “United Nations”-like, and the days of Ike flying in a polished, bare-metal Columbine II are long gone.

“I do not see it.”

I saw it immediately, and told my wife somebody would be comparing this to Trump One, or whatever Trump’s private plane is called. I don’t care personally. I like the color scheme, but some lefty is going to promote a comparison I told my wife in effort to create a stink of sorts to smear him.

Watch, and see.

President Trump, Please reconsider.

You have have kept your pledge to Make America Great Again, and rebuild American manufacturing and industrial prowess.

The designer of the old paint scheme, Raymond Loewy, was one of the greatest industrial designers in American history. He personally designed the look of many iconic products and company logos that made the our country and our products look like they did when we were the king of the industrial world.

As you restore us to that position, please do not discard the history of our prior great age!

I put this together the last time this topic came up:



You don't need to change the design just because you don't like the color.

I suspect you’re using a liberal browser.

Could the next president also change the paint scheme on Air Force One?

I don’t see it. Lots of red/white/blue combinations out there. One could claim it’s derivative of American Airlines or Amtrak and be just as valid as the liberal claims.

Probably. It is a Microsoft product.

Hi.

Thanks for the pics.

I was expecting to see a red “T” on the tail.

Democrats’ heads would explode.

But you have to get it approved by a Hawaiian judge.

Good Job!!! (although now I have James Brown’s song “I feel good” in my head - ahh!)

What a beautiful plane! That’s the way the plane from the United States of America should look!!
