Air Force One is the air traffic control call sign of any U.S. Air Force aircraft 1carrying the president of the United States. Since 1990, the presidential fleet has consisted of two specifically configured, highly customized Boeing 747-200B series aircraft. While these planes are only referred to as "Air Force One" 2while the President is on board, the term is commonly used to describe either of the two aircraft normally used and maintained by the U.S. Air Force solely for the President.
Air Force One is capable of flying 7,800 miles, roughly one-third the distance around the world, without refueling and 3can acommadate more than 70 passengers. Before the current two planes entered service, two Boeing 707-320B-type aircraft had operated as Air Force One starting in 1962. Since its inception, Air Force One has become a symbol of presidential power and prestige. Air Force One costs approximately 325 million dollars.
Air Force one differs 4from the standard Boeing 747 in size features, and security precautions. While Air Force One has three floors, like a regular Boeing 747, 5it’s interior has been reconfigured for presidential duties. 6The planes' 4,000 square feet of interior floor space include multiple modifications. The planes' lowest levels are mostly cargo space, carrying luggage and the plane's food supply. 7The plane has storage, and freezer capacity to provide up to 2,000 meals when fully loaded. Meals are prepared in two galleys, which together are equipped to feed about 100 people at a time. The main passenger area is on the second floor, and communications equipment and the cockpit are on the third floor.
There are three entrances to the airplane. One door at the front and one door at the rear open onto the lower deck. Another door at the front of the aircraft opens onto the middle deck. This is where the rolling staircase is placed for the President to enter the airplane and to emerge and wave to the crowd. 8Members of the news media enters through the rear door and then make their way to the middle deck where they are comfortable in accommodations much like those of the first-class section of a commercial airplane. On board Air Force One are medical facilities, and every flight is staffed by a doctor. The medical facilities include a fold-out operating table, emergency medical supplies, and a well-stocked pharmacy. 9Recently, president George W. Bush added a treadmill to Air Force One. There are separate sleeping quarters for guests, senior staff, Secret Service and security personnel, and the news media. The President's executive suite includes a private dressing room, workout room, lavatory, shower, and private office. These offices, including the President's suite, are mostly located on the starboard, and a long corridor runs along the port. Whenever Air Force One rolls up to an event, it always comes to a stop with the left side of the aircraft facing gathered onlookers 10as a security measure to keep the Presidents side of the aircraft out of view.
In the office areas, Air Force One has access to photocopying, printing, and word processing services, as well as telecommunication systems (including 85 telephones and 19 televisions). There are also secure and non-secure voice, fax, and data communications facilities.The planes can also be operated as a military command center in the event of an incident such as a nuclear attack. Operational modifications include aerial refueling capability and anti-aircraft missile countermeasures. The electronics on board are connected with approximately 238 miles of wiring, twice that of a regular 747. All wiring is covered with heavy shielding for protection from an electromagnetic pulse in the event of a nuclear attack. The planes also have electronic countermeasures (ECMs) to jam enemy radar and flares to avoid heat-seeking missiles. Many of Air Force One's other capabilities are classified for security reasons.
Theodore Roosevelt became 11the first president to fly in a plane on October, 11 1910. However, prior to World War II, overseas and cross-country presidential travel was rare. Lack of wireless telecommunications and quick transportation 12made long-distance travel, impractical because it took up much time and isolated the president from events in Washington, D.C.
