Just one shot. This photo was taken by my dad at Zaventem (Brussels - EBBR) during the visit of George W. Bush in 2005.
He took it in the terminal while waiting to board for his flight to Mexico.

Best looking 747 I know.

There's also a 757 in the same colors behind AF1.

Unless GWB was actually on board when the photo was taken then technically it's not a pic of Air Force One. It's only Air Force One when the President is on board.

Still a great pic though ;)

Considering there's only a few of them I shouldn't think their long term job prospects are that great then...  ;D

I should think the six month course gives them the qualifications to paint more than just Air Force One.
