I am surpised, considering the C-17 was here today...
If he using the C-32 or C-40 perhaps he will actually use LGA, very rare to have the actual AF1 call sign on our freqs.
LGA777
That's probably why it was here.Quote:

Looks like it will be JFK, approx arrival time 1600-1700L and departing approx 2230-2330L
Figures JFK stays pretty busy on Saturday afternoons while even with single runway ops LGA is so dead, out to off times currently about 3-8 mins.

Thats interesting. Wonder if by motorcade or Marine 1? He is going to a Broadway play. LGA makes more sense in regards to
time and traffic (not him, us).

Went walking at 4:30 and the 22s had been coming over my house and now I see a couple of them doing a circle over
my neighborhood.
Just saw a brief mention of the trip on the evening news, looked like they were boarding a Gulfstream at Andrews AFB.
Flew Marine One from JFK to Wall St heliport according to news reports.
I watched from the Brooklyn Bridge two Chinooks land from the northeast and then Marine One made the approach from the southeast and made a smooth landing on the pad. It was a cool sight to witness.Quote:

I think he took Marine 1 from JFK to the Wall St. Heliport and motorcaded up to the West Village where the Obamas dined. Now, what about Prince Harry's aircraft also on Saturday. A very busy day for security in NYC.
