    You know it's going to be a good day when there's another Paul Stewart upload. RUclips's premier aviation tour guide. No fluff, heaps of facts but not too long.

      Hi Paul.
      Great video.
      I see to recall you looking through this plane last I , as part of a bigger museum tour,...but I maybe bonkers, too !😂
      It was something about the lift for the president to use that reminded me, or was there another plane also that had a lift for a president ?

    That was great Paul. Technically, "Air Force One" is the radio call sign for any aircraft carrying the Present. So, technically, it could be a Piper Cub.

    My shoulders are wide and I visited it once. I tried turning around to look behind me and got stuck between the window panel things. It took me a small amount of work to get unstuck, but luckily nobody was around to see me flapping my arms around inside the Sacred Cow for a few seconds.

    I have been a subscriber for over a year now I'm sure and I love your in depth style and thoughtful choice of aircraft we are all interested in. I learn something and have an entertaining time always watching them. I am always wowed by aircraft museums and the history. I'm a student pilot that ran outta money but sure loved the little flying I did. ha ha. Thanks for all the hard work. I am a retired professional video editor and i realize the effort involved. Best to you Paul and keep up the great work! Tod in Las Vegas. :)

      C-54s did have a flight engineer. In fact, actor Montgomery Clift played one aboard a USAF C-54 in a movie about the Berlin Airlift titled, "The Big Lift." You should be able to find the movie on RUclips.
