The plane that Reagan used is a Boeing 707 (passenger aircraft) , refitted for special use. It has the air force designation of VC-137 and called SAM 27000 as a presidential plane.
The current president and his family use air force one
The plane used to transport the President is always called Air Force One, irrespective of which particular plane he's in. It is generally a Boeing 747-200 modified with special equipment such in-flight refueling. To be more technical, it is Air Force One if he is on an Air Force Plane, Marine One when he is on the helicopter, or Navy One if he is on a Navy plane. The "one" gives the aircraft priority in aviation hierarchy (the smaller the number, the higher the priority).
The plane that carries the President of the United States of America is always called Air Force One. ANY plane he transfers to adopts the name while the President is on board, while all other planes he had been on revert to their standard 'name' (such as a '747').
A plane uses thrust, generated by its engines, to propel itself forward in the air. This thrust overcomes drag to propel the plane forward and generate lift, allowing the plane to stay airborne.
"Air Force One" is a designation not the name of the plane. There is only one Air Force One and is what ever aircraft the president is on at the time. When he is on a helicopter, it's "Marine One" There are two aircraft dedicated for the president to use and they are kept at Andrews AFB just for his use. But the designation "Air Force One" is the current aircraft that he is on at any given time.
Thrust and lift are required to make a plane fly. A plane can use just lift if it is in the air already. The engines create thrust (if the aircraft has engines), and the wings create lift. Helicopters make lift by pushing air down, though.
The Eurofighter Typhoon is a twin-engine multirole fighter plane. It was designed by three different companies (EADS, Alenia Aeronautica, and BAE Systems). It was began service in 2003. The primary users of the Eurofighter Typhoon are European Air Forces. The countries that use the Eurofighter Typhoon are: Austrian Air Force, Italian Air Force, the German Air Force, Royal Air Force, the Spanish Air Force, and the Royal Audi Air Force.
uhh a plane.
A plane uses upthrust, or lift, by generating higher air pressure below its wings compared to above them. This pressure difference creates a force that pushes the plane upwards. The wings are designed to deflect air downwards, resulting in an equal and opposite reaction that lifts the aircraft.
No. All modern presidents have been given the use of a private plane, called "Air Force One," but it is generally for official business, such as traveling to a summit meeting in a foreign country or attending a meeting about economic development at a location that is distant from the White House. That said, if a president is going to conduct official business and also make a campaign stop along the way, that president will still fly in Air Force One, since it is a safe and secure way for him to travel. But no president uses the presidential plane exclusively for campaigning-- that is not its intended purpose.
