When the President of the United States flies in an airplane, the official air traffic control call sign is Air Force One. The U. S. Air Force is responsible for operations and maintenance of these jets, hence, the "Air Force" call sign. Conversely, the helicopter which flies the President is handled by the U.S. Marine Corps. When the President flies in the helicopter, the air traffic control call sign is "Marine One".

Just as any airplane on which a U.S. President travels is referred to as Air Force One for the duration of the flight, any helicopter on which a U.S. President travels is referred to as Marine One.
