Maybe what we need is not a list of the passengers on Air Force One, but a list of the pilots of the accompanying fighters, or the IDs of the fighters.

Someone posted a thread here yesterday suggesting that the fighter plane accompanying AF-1 seemed to have a red tail, and suggested that maybe it was a photo-op for a movie being made about the Tuskegee airmen—a group of black fighter pilots—in World War II. I think the director is George Lucas.
We know that Obama takes an interest in this group, and that, according to an earlier article posted here, several of them were brought to his inauguration:

I don’t know whether yesterday’s thread about the Tuskegee Airmen was removed, or whether I’m just using the wrong words to look for it, but I can’t seem to find it.
The Tuskeegee Airmen were recently re-formed as a group, and they continue to use their signature of red tails on their fighters. The fighter accompanying AF-1 in those videos and photos appears to have a red tail, although it’s a bit too small in the photo to be certain.
Maybe the movie about these heroes of WW II was planning some sort of final scene showing Obama being escorted by the Redtails on some world-saving mission? That would be a great propaganda op for him.

Up next on the Obama terror channel: A rental truck parade in Oklahoma City.
perhaps they’ll next do a mock suicide attack with a squadron of F-16s. head straight for the empire state building but peel away at the last moment. just an exercise, folks! :P

“IMO, this entire “stunt” was performed SOLELY to determine public reaction.”
Could be. Otherwise, why were these officials sworn to secrecy? It really makes no sense.
Ask WCBSTV for the memo to be posted to the article using this form: http://wcbstv.com/formsection?fid=996668
They are asking for feedback on how you feel about the feds threatening sanctions on NY if someone spilled the beans.

So, just like you, I heard the house shake as the plane got closer. From my living room on the 5th floor, I have a clear view to the south, since there are no buildings taller than mine in that direction. The plane was making a counterclockwise circle, coming from about the Verrazano-Narrows, turning in JC, and then heading toward Newark. I lost sight of it only because of the haze but would have been able to see the full circle on a clear day. Three things got my attention right away: it was very low, it was not a commercial plane, and, of course, the fighter escort. Also, the fighter had a red tail and the plane had a white hull with blue and turquoise underbelly. That's when I realized it looked like Air Force One.
Next time the plane came around, I was ready with my binoculars. This time, I could see the seal on the right/starboard side of the plane. The plane made 3 counterclockwise circles total and hasn't been back since. This actually made me less worried because if it were a real emergency or something was wrong, more fighters would have arrived by then and they would not have let the plane circle that low and that close to the city three times.
Anyway, I have no idea why they would do that, but it was either AF1 or a 747 painted to look like it. I looked for planes or helicopters that could have been filming and didn't see any, though I see someone else has posted that it was a photo shoot.

Hey watch this.....panic in the streets.
I think that’s the idea. I think Obama ordered the military to do this for the forthcoming Lucas movie, so he could get himself into it and be associated with the heroic Tuskegee Airmen.
If so, no doubt the whole thing will now be quietly dropped on Obama’s orders.
They really take us for a$$holes.
It is actually pretty easy to as this kind of tail art temporarily.
I thought movie too. Your find is very interesting...

Don’t blame Obama, he was only 40 when 9/11 happened...
Kinda like he was three months for the Bay of Pigs...
even though it was in April and he wasn’t born till August.
Like ‘Selma got me born’, even though it happened after he was born. /s
ping.
We know how the O will answer this... right? (graphic warning)

I wish I could say what I really think about him but I don't want to get banned from FR.
