Air Force One’s Bridge Model Arrives

Air Force One’s new bridge model has landed at Joint Base Andrews, painted in patriotic red, white, and blue — but it’s not yet ready for presidential duty. This Boeing-built aircraft, part of a crucial transition from the aging fleet dating back to the early 90s, must pass its “final exam” of commissioning flights to ensure safety and readiness. Air Force Chief of Staff General Ken Wilsbach praised the accelerated delivery, defying skeptics. Meanwhile, the full next-gen VC-25B fleet, originally expected by 2024, may not arrive until mid-2028 — meaning we’re still years away from the ultimate presidential jet.
