Conflation of Air Force One and VC-25

edit

This item seems to be a conflation of two different concepts:

  • "Air Force One," which is the call sign used for an Air Force aircraft (theoretically any of them, but usually a VC-25) which the President of the United States is currently on board
  • VC-25, the designation of four Boeing aircraft (two VC-25A's delivered in 1990, two VC-25B's under construction) which are the official United States presidential aircraft, and which are popularly referred to as "Air Force One"

Should we create a new item for one or the other? Or maybe create new items for both and mark this one as obsolete? Tanner Swett (talk) 14:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
