Air Force One Retires Iconic VC-25A

Air Force One Retires Iconic VC-25A

Published 1 day, 13 hours ago
Description

President Trump just flew out on the final mission of the iconic Air Force One Boeing 747-200, a veteran VC-25A that served three decades of U.S. presidents since 1990. As it officially retires, the Air Force welcomes three new 747-800s — including one donated by Qatar — to modernize the fleet and ease strain on aging aircraft. While one new jet may be ready this summer, the other two face delays, now expected by mid-2028. And get this: Trump’s new color scheme — red, white, gold, and navy blue — marks a bold aesthetic shift from the classic light blue, signaling a fresh chapter in presidential air travel.
