As far as I'm aware, any AF plane carrying POTUS can have the callsign AF1.
It's not restricted to any one plane.
One interesting point to note was that when uncle Joe flew to Delaware, that plane did not squawk as AF1.
Do you also not find it interesting that after many people pointed out the fact that he had not yet flown AF1, that they make a drama and a point of this?
For that short trip he could easily have flown in Marine 1, it would have been quicker than flying to Andrews first.
Not any plane. Air Force One is the designation for any Air Force plane he is on. A civil aircraft is called Executive One. While a navy craft would be called Navy One.
You’re absolutely right. I thought this was common knowledge but I guess it’s not. We have a lot of sheep here now that can’t think for themselves. You can search it and find out for yourself in 30 seconds.
Thank you for the correction.
The point I was making was that AF1 is not a specific plane.
Also that when he flew, it didn't squawk the callsign AF1 as would be expected.

Or like, “Marine One”.
