  1. How fortunate that our thieving, corrupt, lying overlords will have a $237,000,000.00 helicopter. They sure care about Americans; er, excuse me, they truly care about the citizens they casually refer to as β€œdregs,” β€œdeplorables,” and β€œtea-baggers.”
    Swine.

  2. does it really matter how good the defence measures on the chopper are. there would be constant air-cap over his entire routes from before the start till after the finish. try getting past the ground and airborne detection and defence assets. there would most likely be at least a couple raptors flying air-cap the whole time. he is safe as houses.

  3. The call sign Air Force-1 is exclusive for Air Force aircraft with the President on board flown by Air Force pilots, Marine-1 for any Marine aircraft the POTUS is on. If the President is on a Navy aircraft, it would be called Navy-1.

    A littke know fact is if a President happens to be on a private/civilian aircraft the call sign is Executive-1

  4. The S-92 that was disaster for the Canadians.
    Joke is that in 2009 Obama cancelled the contract for 23 British built Merlin helicopters (that were to replace the Sea Kings) in 2017 for cost reasons after 9 were delivered. So he gave the contract to Sikorsky for delivery in 2017 and yet none have been delivered (other than test aircraft).
    And they think $4.7 Bn cost is a saving …

  5. All I see is at the 1:00 mark, Dementia Man exiting Marine One and failing to salute the Marine Guard at the stairs. Pretty inconsiderate of him and a break of protocol. No wonder the doofus can't climb stairs. Too concerned about looking cool with his RayBan aviators.

  6. I'll try to keep this short but the level of uninformed BS in this video is immense! Lawn scorched indeed! What a clown. 'Beyond Facts' is about right! Because of their poor performance, S-61 based aircraft such as the VH-3D were regarded as unsafe for public transport flight in some territories at least as early as 1982 so the idea that you have been transporting your president in one of these over 40 years later is ridiculous. The VH-92 is due to take over because of Lockheed Martin's immense skill at ripping the arse out of the defence budget and the corrupt manner in which the best aircraft (VH71/AW101) was excluded. VH71/AW101, unlike the S-92, is a successful military aircraft with outstanding performance and range whereas the S-92 is optimised for oil & gas crew change but known for having range vs payload issues and being expensive to operate. At the time of the original competition, the S-92 had some serious short-comings, several of which were highlighted after the Cougar 91 accident in 2009, some of which have been sorted but some await the probably-now-abandoned S-92B.
