UPDATE: Escort Aircraft appear to have broken off. AF1 is landing at Colorado Springs Municipal Airport.
What type of aircraft were escorting it?
Pardon me, but isn't it somewhat unusual for even AF1 to have an (presumably fighter jet) escort while traveling INSIDE CONUS??
That strikes me as a bit odd...yeah, top security & all, but.... I dunno.... Anyone know?
No way to tell. They were squawking as trainers, but the military often has their fighters do this to conceal the type of aircraft they actually are. They were probably fighters.
To my knowledge, AF1 always has 2 fighters escorting it for long journeys. This was unusual in that there were 7 or 8 escort aircraft.
