Ok well technically my comment still stands, and the goddamn plane says United States of America on it and its the only boeing in existance (except for the 3 additional Air Force Ones). So, its a teenager taking his parents badass vehicle out for a joyride.

No, it's a teenager taking his parents badass vehicle out to bring from the summer house to the real house and taking pictures on the way home.

Mire like "silly".

I do like their excuse that the flight was planned anyway and they combined them to save money, good on them. Though we can argue that withoutout photoop they could havew saved some more money (that and there always is an other excercise in the pipeline but meh). Atleast they tried to save (some) money.

They really dont like the public to know exactly where and when the presidential plane will be flying danger low and danger stupid. Makes for a easy target of opportunity.

A rather pointless target though, it would be "just the plane (and crew)". Not something really something that makes an appealing target (not more of a target the trying to attack any plane approaching or leaving any airfield when it's flying low aswell, hell those might be even better targets since they ain't "empty")...

Well, first off, you dont know if the president is in there or not, and second, there is quite a bit of symbolism (and destruction) that would happen for blowing up Air Force One.

Plus, a large piece of machinery with a whole bunch of fuel flying over a city could turn into a very potent weapon if it was unable to steer out of the way of several very large, very expensive, very densely populated skyscrapers.
