Beside all the jokes that we want the president and trump to ride that plane together… He’s on a mission to save as much money as possible and then he wants two new airplanes for himself???
So technically they were commissioned during the Obama era, Trump 1 threatened to cancel the program if the budget went over 4 billion, then Boeing appeased him.
Also the reason they were commissioned to save money. Aging aircraft are a bitch to operate. That’s why cheap airlines like Ryanair only run new planes.
Also there are already two of them. I suppose one is probably a backup?
Also, fun fact, technically any plane that the US president is currently flying on, is at that moment, Air Force One.
