The first Air Force One is in need of preservation, it is the only Presidential plane not in a museum.

The Lockheed Constellation is a beautiful aircraft.

I wish more were still flying today . . .

True, and jet engines very seldom catch on fire for the 'entertainment' of the passengers. [sarcasm]

Though I have seen a couple explode on take-off before. That's always fun.

Many people don't realize two engines jet aircraft are rated to take-off on one engine. Hard to believe one engine will get an airplane that weighs close to a half-million pounds off the ground, but they do.
