Ex Air Force One [B707] and Sikorsky VH-3A & F-14 Tomcat

All used in the President Ronald Reagen rein.

Something that many people do not know is that the aircraft is not called Air Force One unless the President is onboard, it reverts to its aircraft registration.

Don't you mean "Marine 1" as it's run by Marine Helicopter Squadron One?

Not quite true, it's called Marine 1 when the president is on board.
