| 58-6971 (cn 17926) "Freedom One"... Look closely and you will notice that the blue paint does not extend up over the cockpit. This aircraft was therefore part of the Presidential support fleet, but did not carry the President of the United States. Only those that have blue paint surrounding the cockpit are used to carry the President. | |||
