Air Force 1 refurbished
The big question since February has been, how is that $1.4 billion being calculated? Here, at last, is the Air Force’s answer. (www.defenseone.com) Mehr...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Wrong headline, sorry. You refurbish aircraft that have been flying for years and need updates, new CCC equipment, maybe change seats, etc. whereas the article is referring to the two brand new 747-8s to serve as Air Force 1.
I merely copied the original title of the article, but you are quite correct - two for the price of one as it were. And as Record10 puts it. Air Force One is such when the president is onboard.
!.4 billion you and buy a fleet of 747's for that price.
But by the same token, it certainly would not have the same Avionics/Defense Package!
Nothing is too good for our President.
And I mean waaaaaay too good.
Maybe we should all refrain from name calling. It's not at all helpful to label those on the left, right or middle.
