The tail number of the one being gifted to him is P4-HBJ, the initials of the former prime minister and incredibly wealthy royal Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani.
I fully expect him to change it to DJT or something.
Edit: Also, pretty sick if he flies around in this thing because the actual VC-25’s that are currently used as Air Force 1 and 2 are full of countermeasures and emp shielding. This one is a sitting duck as I presume it’s a bone stock luxury 747
~2020 Boeing outsourced the interior finishing work of Air Force one to a financially insolvent shell company 80% owned by the Saudi Arabian Government, GDC. GDC basically just took the money and did none of the work, lmao. Boeing got an extra $500 million of government funds out of it too when what they lost on that deal is an estimated $320 million. The whole program for delivering just two planes is ~2 billion over budget.
Allegedly the Saudi government diverted those payments for the Air Force One work to finishing their own 787-8 aircraft before dissolving GDC and abandoning the AF1 commitments, critical support for that maneuver
Dem consultant: "How about ‘Now is the time for unity as President Vance leads us to the war we must undertake to uphold what America stands for. We stand for freedom.’ "
A bit later
Dem congresspeople: “Now is the time for unity as President Vance leads us to the war we must undertake to uphold what America stands for. We stand for freedom.”
A bit later after that.
Redditors: “Look, we need unity. President Vance isn’t perfect but Iran attacked us so we’re going to war with them. We stand for freedom. They don’t. They’re terrorists. So fuck them.”

Dems will instantly circle the wagons when Iran eventually blows it out of the sky and we’ll get clips of AOC crying at his funeral.
