The Presidentials

Hi everyone!

Welcome to the USA TOUR!!

After our arrival to Memphis, in another propeller leg in a series of these kind of legs, that brought us from Oregon to Tenessee, next we will be switching gears into a mixed category.

As we head towards the Capital City of U.S.A, home of the house of Government,we will be flying Aircrafts used to transport head of State, of any country of choice. The Presidents' carriages.

Aircrafts

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_transports_of_heads_of_state_and_government

Any aircraft in that list qualifies. Any country. Any era. We are looking forward to cruise at or around FL250@0.75 Mach, but if your plane of choice is outside this performance, yet, ie. is an historic Presidential, it will qualify as participant.

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

Going patriotic this time guys, IH-COL will pilot FAC-0001, the Boeing Business Jet that Transports the Republic of Colombia's President

(FAC stands for Fuerza Aerea Colombiana -- Colombian Airforce)

The BBJ is being currently worked on in the VIP series by JWOCKY and I'll prepare the livery.

Israel why can't you ever pick a date that works for me?
I will try to fly this day but I will be taking an SAT subject test and studying for finals.

Mr David Cameron (A330-200)

Image

HRH Elizabeth II (chartered 777, as on her trip to Australia)

Image
Presidente Maduro (A319 (A320-FAMILY))



Alright. I love the A330, but I am concerned about framerates in DCA. I can do a good landing. The 777 is worse at framerates, and I find it harder to fly with a recent change in how the trim works. The A319 is hard to land -- FDM really needs a joystick -- not a mouse.

So I think I will decide soon...

Need to test DCA'S frame rates

If I got time to participate this USA TOUR I'll be flying this:
Image
Netherlands Government - Fokker 70 - Registration: PH-KBX (KBX stands for Koningin Beatrix and Koningin is the Dutch word for Queen, but she isn't the Queen of The Netherlands anymore.)

This aircraft will be replaced next year by a Embraer Lineage 1000 (Edit 5/26/2016: The Dutch government doubts about the plane that should replace the Fokker 70, they think that the Boeing 737 BBJ is a better choice). It's sad to see that all of this Dutch made aircraft get seldom, all KLM Fokker 70's and 100's will also be replaced.

No idea what variant, but Djim is bringing the A340 in the Algerian livery.

Well I think everyone knows what I am flying.

A330-200 aircraft carrying the President of France.

Image

I already flew from France to Japan and I will be doing a flight from RJBB to KMEM. I don't know the dates but if anyone want to join me they are welcome.

ACI might be repairing the livery for the A330, as the current one needs some work.
