POTUS stopped at 3:52 pm to accept a framed photo of the Thunderbirds in flight from the Thunderbird squadron. They all posed for photos in front of the Beast and their planes.

At 3:56 pm, it appeared from afar that the Beast had stopped to bid farewell to those riding on a private jet, parked beyond AF1. No details were made available on the stop.
At 3:58 pm, POTUS boarded AF1 and waved. The First Lady was not with him.
