I hear a VH-3D just landed at Wall St heliport with two other choppers hovering behind her. Anyone see anything at JFK? I haven't heard anything about Obama coming to town...maybe a training mission?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.

I think its a training mission for the UN General Assembly when Obama arrives.
Aspires to become an Air Traffic Controller at Kennedy Tower.

does that make it MARINE-ONE-FOXTROT?
it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
I was out at Bayswater earlier this afternoon and saw them take off and head south shortly after a C-17 departed 31L. Later I drove by the triple hangars expecting to see Air Force One but there was nothing there. Luckily I got a glimpse of one of the military helicopters being towed into a hangar.
No. From FAA Order 7110.65, Air Traffic Control:does that make it MARINE-ONE-FOXTROT?
2-4-20. AIRCRAFT IDENTIFICATION
7. Presidential aircraft and Presidential family aircraft:
(c)When a member of the President's family is aboard any aircraft, if the U.S. Secret Service or the White House Staff determines it is necessary, state the words "Executive One Foxtrot."

Garg! When did the C-17 depart?
1:09pm
Here are the two Marine One's:
So their staging area is now the triple hangers, correct? If that's the case, why did the C-17 depart on 31L? Or is the 13L departure just for the actual VC-25?
Email me anytime at [email protected].
From what I've seen in the past, the support aircraft (either C-5s or C-17s) normally arrive and depart as part of the normal traffic stream, only AF1 gets special routing.

Was FLOTUS actually on the chopper? What did she fly to get up here?
