Somebody important was on board that plane.
The F16s are carrying live ordnance.
Those?
They're photoshopped in...
Wait a minute. According to the NY Daily and the USNews links below, there was only Air Force One and one F-16. Who took the picture of both planes in the same frame? Besides, didn’t the original pictures of the F-16 show a red tail which caused the flap over the Alabama fighters movie? I don’t see a red tail.
“The F16s are carrying live ordnance.”
That’s the same thing I’m thinking. If this was just a photo op, why the sidewinders?
