Another red tailed Six.



WIP Airforce One USAF 53-3240, J. F. Kennedy´s VC-118, 1962. More infos soon.

It is nearly impossible to find pictures of the real bird from 1960 to 1964. If you have one or a link - would be a great help.

Air Force One repaint of Kennedy´s VC118A is already uploaded and will be available soon.



This repaint shows Air Force One VC-118A 53–3240 in the year 1962. This Liftmaster with c/n 44611 was built as a VIP transport and delivered to the 1254th Air Transport Wing at Washington International Airport on December 23, 1955. In July 1961 the 1254th ATW along with 53–3240 were relocated to Andrews AFB. The aircraft soon became President John F Kennedy’s favorite plane to transport him to the short landing strip at Hyannisport, Massachusetts or smaller Airfields. Later in 1962 this VC-118A got the famous turquise/blue livery, which was designed by Jackie Kennedy (for the SAM 62-6000, a VC-137C). President Lyndon Johnson occasionally used this aircraft, too. After the presidental flight-time, aircraft was shortly used as VIP transport for USAF again with white/grey scheme. On 18-6-1975, the 3240 was transferred to the Military Aircraft Storage and Disposal Center (MASDC) with inventory number CG073. Today, this aircraft is on display at the Pima Air and Space Museum in Tucson Arizona painted in the scheme Jackie Kennedy had designed.
And yes, I am currently working on the famous turquise/blue presidental flight scheme. WIP shot coming soon.

Does any one have a system close to mine? Would like to know if my system can handle this airplane.

[JPVisser]

I've got it running on an AMD Athlon II 630 with a Radeon 6800 and I get fluid flight
So you should be ok.
