    The best I could come up with was the toilet onboard Russia's PUTIN FORCE ONE.

    The history of taking a crap in the world.

    I think there's a crapper history website out there.

    When I first arrived in Vietnam in 69 at DaNang the next day we boarded a 6X to take me to my first home in Vietnam on Hill 55.

    As we pulled out of the gate and while driving through Dog Patch it was culture shock.

    A Vietnamese woman hiked up her dress and squatted and pooped along the side of the road as if it was San Francisco.

    Sure wasn't in Kansas anymore.

    “The additional costs beyond the $3.90B are for standard work outside of the Boeing contract scope for two aircraft,” Stefanek wrote. “These include government testing, initial spares, support equipment, product support, training and military facilities construction. These additional costs are standard costs typically separate from the prime contractor work to deliver the system on acquisition programs and are part of nearly every system the government acquires.”


    At the risk of another banning for a personal attack oh no i'm not going to use the Nword or call you a racist i am going to ( deep breath) tell you to read past the headline.

    Did not know that.

    So was there ever a Navy-one?

    A ship dedicated to transporting the POTUS?

    I don't care what you do or your display of not even grasping why there is an Air Force One dodging noted.
    Stop digging your hole.

    Yes there was, the Presidential yacht which was a commissioned U.S. Navy boat with sailors and a Marine detachment.

    The USS Sequoia

    It was decommissioned and eventually stricken from the U.S. Navy registry in 1977.

    And if you go back to my initial post, you will see that I was focused on Trump's claims versus the real cost. The article supports that. I don't care what it is spent on - the total cost is higher than he is purporting. I don't know about you, but $2B is a big difference to me!

    Of course not. He got to tell the public that he got a lower price - he just didn't tell them the total cost. Just a lie of omission, no biggie.

    I wonder who's going to design the interior for the new Air Force One ?

    The woman who designed the interior for all of Trump's planes also designed most of the VIP business jets for world leaders and government and the scuttlebutt is she has retired.

    She was also part of the Boeing Business Jets team.

    U.S. government service
    Sequoia was purchased in 1931 by the United States Department of Commerce, for Prohibition patrol and decoy duties. Bootleggers would see what they thought was a rich-man's yacht and boat over to offer to sell illegal liquor, and then undercover police would arrest them.

    ...
    Notable events aboard Sequoia include:

    And some seem to be legends:[10]
