WinnaH!!!!! (Talking about Air Force One of course.)

Not Ahhhnold, but another polotician with an interesting grasp of the English language.  :)

Lots and lots of police around too. All intersections near here have a 24hr patrol.

I went down to the March museum to get a closer look, but that is closed too. There are 3 planes, 2 look like AF1, one is just a United 747 probably carrying the press.

When I was 18 I got to see President Bushes motorcade on a trip to the dentist.  The cops closed down the intersection a couple of minutes before the lemo's came through.  I was with my mom in her car and we were the first one's at the light.  I could see Barbara Bush through the window of the 3rd lemo :D  I assumed that George was in the car with her, but I couldn't see him.

 Was a cool little moment for an 18 year old...

George Bush Sr., came thru our state back when I was still in uniformed patrol. The entire Sheriff's Office was scattered throughout the county in various locations along the route. The spooky part was when the Secret Service told us not to put our hands near our weapons when the President passed. We were targets for snipers, uniforms or not. Kinda made me feel really small, lol.

Saw Bush 1 and the head of the soviet union (can't spell his name, but it was 1989 summer)  I was in the top of the Washington Memorial looking out the window when their helicopter (Marine 1) landed near by and they got out for some ceramony.

The plane will take off and fly very close to our plant. I told one of our "smarter" employees that he will be able to see the plane better through a 3' piece of 3" diameter drainpipe.  

I wonder how fast this might bring in the Marines :)

edit: (don't worry I won't let him do it.)

GW Sr. came to Tucson while I was a motor. The Secret Service advised us to make sure we did not drop the bike in front of the motorcade as they would NOT stop. AS it was one of the motors hit some sand and went down. He did a tuck and roll and came up to attention to salute the limo as it went past. :) GW was a class act, he not only stopped to shake the hands of all that were in the escort but sent his personal physician to check on the motor Officer that went down. All of us that made it to the airport got a nice 8x10 of the handshake photo.

I shook hands with Clinton back in 1992.  Probably because I was a cwuuute little kid at the time... Got some pictures too, it was neat.
