Pictures from the static displays at the 2009 Andrews AFB airshow.
This is video of Air Force One taken by me in early 2004 at Andrews AFB in Maryland. I was part of a group that installed the security system for the Air Force One Hangar and I saw the plane everyday for 4 months. About a month after the the last clip was shot I helped arrange a tour of the plane for me and my co-workers. We were given a tour of the older of the two planes which was tail number 28000. That particular aircraft was ordered by President Reagan and began its service under the first President Bush. It was also the aircraft that flew the second President Bush around the country right after the September 11 attacks. I was able to arrange a tour because a member of my family, General James U. Cross was the pilot of Air Force One under President Johnson. He made a call for me to the then Air Force One pilot, Colonel Mark Tillman, whom he knew personally. The aircraft themselves are both heavily modified Boeing 747-200B's. They have numerous counter-attack capabilities and can be refueled in the air. The plane is always kept sparkling clean inside and out and the crew members make sure that the President has everything he needs to feel at home while on board.

Normally I do not upload videos of subjects that are unrelated to aviation and airshows, but I figured I would share this video with everyone. What you see here is a thunderstorm off in the distance, shot on Friday May 14, 2010 at roughly 9:00 pm. Prior to 9:00 pm, a VERY STRONG thunderstorm passed through the DC metro area (specifically over Andrews AFB, which is what you see in the background), with one lighting strike happening steps from where this video was shot. You could very well call the lightning as heat lightning, but that's not the correct term. The storms in the area threatened to drop massive hail and threats of tornadoes. Needless to say, I did not see any indication of possible tornadic activity nor did I see or hear any hail. Please feel free to comment this video... I know it's not very exciting, but I think you'll enjoy it if you're a weather geek! Ifyou are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at www.stevesairshow.com .

This plane is part of the 459 ARW (Air Refueling Wing) based at Andrews AFB. It was a sight to see because of how big the plane actually was.

President Obama takes off from Andrews AFB during the Joint Services Open House 2009 Airshow. The flight line was completely shut down except for the presindential aircraft. Obama was on his way to give his Notra Dame Speech on Abortion. People around us were cheering, but I simply kept quiet. I could have said something but chose not too.
Third and Fourth AFB destinations . Andrews AFB, which is famous for Air Force One's home, and airport used for executive personals from other countries. And Dover, AFB that is filled with Transporter such as C-17, C-3s. I've been to both of afbs, quite worth to visit. ps When you approach the same runway i landed on Dover, watch out for tree clearance, you can not be lower than 200ft, before clearing the trees on right side.
