Article title
An alternative title to Boeing VC-25 would be VC-25 "Air Force One". My preference is for the first, following the pattern of Boeing C-32. However, I can live with the second choice, even though technically they are only AF1s if the President is actually onboard. - BillCJ 01:15, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
Article lead
The second third and fourth paragraphs of the Lead (Introduction) are still pretty much as in the Air Force One article. THey may still need to be rewritten to fit this article. Feel free to take a stab at it. Thanks. - BillCJ 04:01, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Name
I heard somewhere (not this article) that the VC-25 is not called Air Force One when the President is not on board. What is it called then? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.205.75.240 (talk • contribs) 18:26, August 12, 2007 (UTC)

- It is a US Air Force aircraft. When it isn't carrying the President or Vice President, its call sign is the same as any other AF aircraft, in this case it would be "Air Force 28000" or "Air Force 29000", depending on which aircraft we are talking about. --rogerd 16:48, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

- See Air Force One, the way I understand it is that any US airforce aircraft carrying the president is the AF1 but when its civilian it's Executive 1 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.250.110.93 (talk) 19:09, August 28, 2007 (UTC)

This is a great link with photos of the inside of this type of aircraft that would really benefit the page. I don't have time to upload any of them right now, but if anyone would like to please feel free. Best, Happyme22 19:23, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
