As previously mentioned, when people label Air Force One as a “floating White House,” it is because the aircraft is like a tank. It is nuclear proof, able to jam radars around the globe, and its flight path is not traceable. Moreover, Air Force One gets priority over every other plane in the sky and its pilots do not have to worry about the amount of air traffic. In fact, air traffic at commercial airports is usually halted when Air Force One takes off or lands. A lot of the time, the plane lands at military airports so it does not mess with usual air traffic. Talk about power and accessibility. The path is truly clear for this iconic symbol of power!
