Sad, how some people try to be funny and fail.
Actually, it depends on the president and which plane. From Kennedy through 1998 there was SAM 26000 (Special Air Mission). SAM 27000 flew from 1972-2001.
SAM 28000 and SAM 29000 are the current operating planes for the President. Hope this helps.

How much does someone in the us air force get paid?
It depends on your pay grade. New airmen start our anywhere between an E-1 through E-3. The rank you're given upon entry is based upon your college credits, ROTC/civil air patrol experience, eagle scout or gold award achievements, and in many cases they offer E-3 to six year enlistees depending on the career field you are applying for. Also if you live off base you will be granted BAH and BAS (housing and food allowence) and if you're stationed overseas you'll get additional funds related to the increased cost of living. For more information google the 2010 military pay chart or better yet speak with your local recruiter.
What signs show that someone is suffering from heat stroke?
Weakness, dizziness, nausea, and possibly collapse.
Think of it this way, when you get hot, your body responds to try to keep you cool. most often it will sweat to allow heat to escape by evaperation. If the body is not getting replenished with fluids (non-sugar and non-alcoholic) the body continues to use up water internally. leading to the weakness, nausea and dizziness from altered blood pressure and increasing body temperature. The body trying to expell additional heat can cause the body to vomit additional fluid from the stomach (also loosing a liter of two more vital fluid) Without cooling, and replenishment of fliuds, the body will fail to be able to cool itself (exhaust it resources) and more quickly into Heat Stroke.
It is important to understand that people move from being just hot to signs of heat exhaustion at different speeds. Some people's body may respond incorrectly and not sweat in heat creating heat stress and heat exhaustion faster. (Look for people who are not sweating when everyone else is hot.
Myths:
- If you are big and tough you wouldn't get it.
- Some people or races just can't get it.
- Only young or old get it.
- I you drink beer on a hot day you will be OK (Actually you dehydrate faster)
The best way to fix Heat Exhaustion or Heat Stoke is to avoid it in the first place. Keep drinking fluids (water) use shade, take breaks, eat lite snacks through the day. Keep checking all the members of your group, crew, party and insist on people staying hydrated. The co-founder of safetystore.com Steven Hull says about 80% of all people needing first aid (of any kind) had little to no water and or food before the injury.
Heat Stoke
The body now stops trying to sweat and heat continued to climb as high as 104-108 degrees which kills brain cells can move to death quickly. In heat stroke no body can recover without outside emergency assistance. Immediate cooling and advanced monitoring of all body functions is required.
