I think he's trying to compensate for something.

I can't read Arabic, but I think the giberish on the side of the plane says, "Go big or go home".  :-)

My Obama avatar didn't raise as much stink as I thought it would.  Hell my Jayhawk got more attention.  It might change again when I get bored.  :-)

You could continue the trend with a picture of the rear end of a horse. :-)

Back in 1989-90 when I was new at UAL  I did some on wing engine repairs on the 747 that belonged to the King of Saudi Arabia...  It had C-checks and overhauls completed in the Oakland hangers......  The interior was just like a Sinbad fantasy... Gold, Furs...   It was as plush as a thing can get.

On the other hand... Air Force 1 is all business.,,,,, Well since Clinton last stepped off

a friend of mine sent this to me a while back, I was telling him about the one I seen here in Waco at L-3, and how rough  the sercurtiy was.

$220 Million dollars... FOR .........(1) AIRPLANE.AIRFORCE ONE CAN'T HOLD A CANDLE TO  THIS ONE.

Sultan of Brunei 'S Private Airplane........

An Air Force Lt. General wrote:'I toured this aircraft as it was being 'remodeled' in Waco, Texas. Yes, the sinks are solid gold and one of them is Lalique crystal. The Sulton bought the aircraft brand new for roughly $100 Million dollars.He had it flown to Waco from the Boeing factory and had the interior completely removed. Then, he had the folks at  E- Systems install $120 Million worth of
Improvements inside and outside.
I have gained entrance to nuclear weapons storage areas much easier than it was gaining entrance to see this airplane. While there it struck me. Maybe the rich really are different than the rest of us.

There is a Raytheon  E Systems unit here in Lexington I have not figures out what they do there but there is security with automatics and a 12' fence around the buildings there will be a few Black Hawks setting in the parking lot from time to time.
