Name of president's Jet?
The plane used to transport the President is always called Air Force One, irrespective of which particular plane he's in. It is generally a Boeing 747-200 modified with special equipment such in-flight refueling. To be more technical, it is Air Force One if he is on an Air Force Plane, Marine One when he is on the helicopter, or Navy One if he is on a Navy plane. The "one" gives the aircraft priority in aviation hierarchy (the smaller the number, the higher the priority).
What is the president's airplane called?
The plane that carries the President of the United States of America is always called Air Force One. ANY plane he transfers to adopts the name while the President is on board, while all other planes he had been on revert to their standard 'name' (such as a '747').
What are the responsibilities of the air force?
The Air Force is Responsible for Air, Space, and Cyberspace. They do everything from Air Lifts to Stopping cyber attacks. From Launching Satellites to Spraying the rivers and valleys for Mosquitoes. As you can see the Responsibilities of the Air Force are far reaching. If you really want to know what the Air Force does, I recommend visiting the Air Force Web Site at airforce.com
