The one in back looks like an old DC7 or DC4 or close to it. God. that predates JFK. DC4 was tiny though.

Steph?
Do not go away again. Stay here and at least let us know how Dad is doing. I tried to go away and "they" would not let me. I am issuing the same edict for you my girl.

My question is
1. How did he get that close to airforce 1 without being shot?
2. Is that secret service agent(s) presently unemployed?
3. How many terrorists have watched that video and said???
Unbelievable.

Got to be a hoax. If not, very disturbing in light of recent terrorist activities. If we can't protect AF1, so much for the rest of us.

I think you're right Charlie . . . either a DC-6 or DC -7 . . . .used to fuel them in late sixties. That's a Jet Star in the front . . . seem to remember that sucker holds 2,226 gallons of A-1. Six tanks (counting those big mid-wing torpedo-looking tanks) . . . . and no single-point refueling.

Tagging Air Force One
Status: Fake
image A video on stillfree.com shows a guy (Mark Ecko) spraying graffiti on Air Force One. This involves him avoiding armed guards, climbing over fences, and then sprinting across the tarmac to write "Still Free" on the plane's engine. The video is well done, but fake. As a disclaimer on the site reads: "You, the viewer of the preceeding are hereby advised that the video does not depict a real event. It is intended for the sole, limited and express purpose of entertainment and to induce you, the viewer of the video, to think critically about freedom of expression and speech and the government's responses to the same."

Here's how he pulled off the hoax...
Air Force One Subject of Internet Hoax
By TED BRIDIS, Associated Press Writer
Friday, April 21, 2006
(04-21) 15:49 PDT WASHINGTON (AP) --
A startling Internet video that shows someone spraying graffiti on President Bush's jet looked so authentic that the Air Force wasn't immediately certain whether the plane had been targeted.
It was all a hoax. No one actually sprayed the slogan "Still Free" on the cowling of Air Force One.
The pranksters responsible for the grainy, two-minute Web video — employed by a New York fashion company — revealed Friday how they pulled it off: a rented 747 in California painted to look almost exactly like Air Force One.
"I wanted to do something culturally significant, wanted to create a real pop-culture moment," said Marc Ecko of Marc Ecko Enterprises. "It's this completely irreverent, over-the-top thing that could really never happen: this five-dollar can of paint putting a pimple on this Goliath."
The video shows hooded graffiti artists climbing barbed-wire fences and sneaking past guards with dogs to approach the jumbo jet. They spray-paint a slogan associated with free expression.
After the video began circulating on the Web on Tuesday, the Air Force checked to see whether the plane had been vandalized.
"We're looking at it, too," said Lt. Col. Bruce Alexander, a spokesman for the Air Mobility Command's 89th Airlift Wing, which operates Air Force One. "It looks very real."
Alexander later confirmed that no such spray-painting had occurred.
Ecko acknowledged Friday that his company had rented a 747 cargo jet at San Bernardino's airport and covertly painted one side to look like Air Force One. Employees signed secrecy agreements and worked inside a giant hangar until the night the video was made. Ecko declined to say how much the stunt cost. "It's not cheap," he said. "You have to be rich."
