Next Air Force One: an Airbus A380?; Gates on weapons buying-by Michelle Dunlop
The Air Force is searching for a new aircraft for the president. Yesterday, the Air Force began the process of picking a new Air Force One, by requesting interested companies to submit basic information on widebody aircraft that might fit the bill. The major contenders could include Boeing’s updated 747-8 or European Airbus’s new A380. The Air Force hopes to have the first of the new presidential aircraft by 2017.
