Yes. Great catch. This is 100% shot from a refuelling plane. It's doubtful Scavino himself would ever even fly on one of these in any official capacity, hence it's doubtful that it's his video. This video is shot from the very last back rows of the A330 refuelling variant aircraft.
Hmm, let's break this down.
The bird shown flying escort to the refueller is a Boeing EA-18G Growler (based on its close cousin, the Super Hornet platform). The giveaway is those wingtip pods – ALQ-218s, part of its electronic warfare suite. The Growler's job is to throw a wrench in the enemy's radar and comms, hence, we definitely could be looking at an escort mission. Likely on the flip side of the refuelling aircraft is a bird with a dedicated air-to-air load-out. That means AIM-120 AMRAAMs for and the AIM-9X Sidewinder for anyone or anything gets lucky enough to get through the outer bubble (you like, like rogue Chinese spy balloons).
If this is a true VIP mission that air attack bird will have an AN/ASQ-228 ATFLIR pod tucked under the fuselage for target identification and laser designation (even though its primary role is for ground targeting). By enabling scanning and target identification out to the horizon, it adds another layer of situational awareness, and another argument for VIP protection, here, but...
Problem. That red dragon is a dead ringer for the Vikings of VAQ-129, the electronic attack squadron that trains Navy and Marine Corps aviators on the Growler. VAQ-129 is based at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island in Oak Harbor, Washington, meaning that this is likely a west coast support mission, nothing to do with Trump, who has been transiting the east coast non-stop since 'losing' 2020. The Marine Corps' VMFA-251 squadron, based at MCAS Beaufort in South Carolina, flies the Super Hornet, and would be more likely to be on wing here if this was one of our VIPs.
what sort of mod are you, huh? it is obviously a scorpian stinger which is the tail art of VAQ-132. they are both hq'd out of whidbey though. 129 being training and fleet replacement, and augmented by USAF EA-18G's (since the 111 was removed from service, so the AF needs to use navy birds cause they are all that's left in that role) but don't mind me making a point of it, I am just a 'pedantic bitch' about such things and might be wrong myself.
probably because it seemed funnier in my own twisted small mind before I posted, I guess. still pretty good reasoning on your post other than the old eyes not being able to see the scorpion thingy.
The beginning of the vid shows an interior that is far too fancy for regular military refueling, no? The voice sounds like Kayleigh McEnany. Vid could've been on AF1 at any point in time during Trump's public presidency. I'm banking it's shown now as a code for someone. Can't find any drops with particular connections and meaning, but I think the nose cone shows 540, which links to a q post showing a waxlike statue of Obama in a plexiglass box.
Going off on a limb, but perhaps following HRC's dandelion (lion's tooth = getting sentenced by tribunal?), this could be a marker for Obama's sentence time from the presumed behind-the-scenes tribunal. Not that I have proof, but that's the vibe I'm getting.
No, tankers aren't empty, in fact, the A330s have most of the fuel they're carrying in the cargo holds. There are some tanks in the passenger area but they're near the center of gravity. The rear part of the passenger section may be transformed into a mission control area with operator stations

My goodness! FFS, I got mixed up didn't I LOL
Not sure what 'modding' has to do with it tho
