W would have to be on board for the designation, but then again - he is the kind of man who would honor President Reagan.

I like to picture Ronald Reagan riding his favorite horse thru the skies of heaven. Looking down on America and wishing us well.

Great idea. Heading back west, do a flyover over Dixon, Ill.

I would have loved to see him taken east on a train through the heartland.

I pray that this would be the mount of his last ride into the sunset. A finer horse he never had.

Spread the word. Maybe it can be made to happen.
If everyone here told 10 and each of those told 10.

I heard a comment from one of the reporters with Bush, in the hours between President Reagan's passing and when GWB made his statement in Paris, that "Reagan's body would be transported on Air Force One."

I think this White House is thinking along the same lines as we are, however they make it happen. There's more than one 747 that gets used as AF1. Maybe they'll use one of them to get President Reagan to Washington, then Bush will accompany him on the way back to California on Friday, after the services in the National Cathedral.

It would be like him and fitting. I'm also wondering if President Bush will pick up Duchess Thatcher on the way home from Normandy, since she's indicated she wishes to attend.

Logistics this week around Sea Isle and the G8 (plus) summit are going to be incredible. I can see most, or all, of the heads of state accompanying Bush back to Washington on Thursday, after the last session, to be in Washington for the funeral services. Why not? They can probably get more work done on that plane than on Sea Isle, anyway.

Given the size of the entourage that will accompany Reagan's casket to and from Washington, DC from the Point Mugu Naval Air Station this coming week I'm sure that one of the two VC-25A's used for Presidential travel will be assigned to carry the group. It truly is fitting, too.
