CitizenVectron Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Apparently the currently one is too boring, and the new one will be red, white, and blue (in other words, gaudy). I believe people when they say the current jet is getting old and a new one is needed for technological reasons, but the current look is so classic (and classy): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarSolo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I'd like to think the classic look for Air Force One is to kind of make it seem similar to other airplanes for safety reasons. I imagine Trump's design is "HEY GUYS THE PRESIDENT IS ON THIS PLANE!!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I mean, most of the design decisions are going to be things that won't get changed until the next time Air Force One is replaced, but it's easy enough to change the paintjob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPCyric Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 You know I hate the guy and almost everything he has done and all the ideas in his head but I feel this is a haters gonna hate situation... I am not even patriotic but having Air Force One red white and blue seems ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not even patriotic but having Air Force One red white and blue seems ok Using the colours is fine, if done in a reserved and tasteful manner. But do you think any design he is involved with would be either of those? Fortunately by the time it actually is built and in use someone will have changed whatever he insists on.

Remember when Trump thought that he would get the taxpayer to foot the bill to upgrade his private plane so he wouldn't have to use Air Force One. Then after being informed that he would have to pay for it out of pocket he dropped that idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneticBlueprint Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 The current AF1 color scheme is reserved and dignified, but dated. I won't mind seeing a change, and at the same time what Trump says he's done and what he's actually done are two very different things so I'm less worried about it being as gaudy and distasteful as it could be. I wouldn't mind something in the vein of France's paint job for theirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
