I’ve caught snippets about AF1 and I admit I’m ignorant on air travel, call signs and stuff.
I have a question though.....well 2 actually.
Is there a new AF1 747 being built or almost completed? Are features being presently transferred to the new 747?
Could that explain the lack of use for the call sign?
Also, as part of Security, wouldn’t it be a good idea Not to properly identify AF1 on radar or from a transponder?
Perhaps make it appear like any other aircraft?
By my questions you can tell I don’t have good knowledge as you do. LOL
Could that explain the lack of use for the call sign?
No. Any USAF aircraft transporting the President is AF1.
