Originally the E-4A was supposed to be a command post in case of nuclear war. That particular one on Anet is an E-4B which does nuclear weathering and communication. It's just a fancy E-3..

Ace, just to make things easier, you could have pasted the link:

http://www.airliners.net/open.file/597077/L/

Same file, smaller URL making things cool and the Topic symmetrical.

You could also hyperlink it like THIS

One can only imigane What they have on there that we cant see or have never every though about.

But i do have a question. a couple of weeks ago, a 757 landed at Work and it was identicail to AF 1. while with blue strip and Untied States Of America on there. i know it wasnt bush on there. So who gets the to fly on a plane liek that or anyplane with Unites States of Americal on there?

Yes where it parked there were black SUV's vans cars evything but not all over the airport just at that location.

We were all puzzled as to who was on there.

Probably a government official/polititian, or maybe a high ranking military chap, although I've seen US 4-star generals transports range from Gulfstream Vs to boeing 707 derivatives...
