Historical Note: This is probably the most famous aircraft of all the Boeing 707 family, as it was operated as the personal aircraft of the President of the United States by the 98th Air Transport Squadron, 89th Military Airlift Wing, U.S.A.F., from Andrews Air Force Base near Washington, D.C. Known as 'Air Force One', VC-137C was the military VIP designation for this Boeing 707-320B, of which 62-6000 was the first of two delivered to the Presidential Flight in October 1962. The 'V' prefix was later dropped from the C-137C designation during the Carter administration. This aircraft is currently stored, awaiting to be displayed at the National Air and Space Museum, Washington D.C.
