While waiting for a flight at Andrews Air Force Base President Trump and Air Force One returned from North Carolina, what a beautiful airplane. For security reasons they kept us inside the terminal and all I had was my old cell phone.

Yes, that plane is something else to see in person. I have seen it twice myself here in Charlotte, once with Clinton and once with Bush #2...And Trump wants to change the paint scheme on it....I think it should stay as is myself but thats me.....Tom

I guess I would have to see the paint scheme before I made any judgement...either way it would be nice even if it had the colors of the flag....either way its still representative of United States and this is still a beautiful airplane

That color scheme was commissioned by Jackie Kennedy and designed by Raymond Loewy . It is understated and one of the most instantly recognizable graphica schemes in the world. Does everything that has to do with America be gaudy and red-white and blue?

Trump is not exactly the sharpest cheddar in the Mac and cheese. He wants the presidential airplanes color scheme to be red white and blue because the US flag is red white and blue. Does he realize over 30 other countries have the colors red white and blue as their flags primary colors?! Does he realize two of those countries are North Korea and Russia?! Does he realize that the presidential airplanes of both those countries is predominantly white, with a red and blue stripe?! Besides, the new planes won't be ready until long after Mr. Trump's presidency end in two more years.

President Trump will be around 6 more years, so he will be able to enjoy the new paint scheme. As well as continue his good work for our country.

The mistakes that resulted in him getting elected two years ago will not happen again. The lazy people who didn't bother to vote because they didn't think they needed to, won't make that mistake again.

Sorry I posted such a political photo, guess most would have been truly offended had I posted the one with President Trump walking down the stairs....didn't mean to 'Trigger' the easily triggerables. Promise it won't happen again...btw, 2 aspirin for TDS works....maybe 8 valium tablets would work better

I would be thrilled to see that plane in person regardless of its occupant ... and I think a thin red pin-stripe running the length of the plane along the point where the blue and white meet would be an elegant touch. (I have no idea what's being proposed, however. Just saying)

Thanks St Lawrence appreciate the comment and you're right we'll have to wait and see what it looks like, I doubt it'll be much of a change at all

Great plane for sure! In 1984 I had the pleasure of being on Air Force one at Andrews and met President Reagan on the plane.
