Basically, a radio call name was given to the plane carrying the president in order to avoid confusion with other planes traveling in that particular area. Similarly, the Army aircraft the president is traveling is called Army One. Likewise, his helicopter is called Marine One. On the other hand, Air Force One is designed to be recognized as one of the main symbols of the presidency. It is meant to look intimidating and make its presence noticed wherever it goes. Its symbol consists of the words “United States of America,” The American flag and the Seal of the President of the United States. Suffice to say, it is the symbol of America and the power it holds in all arenas.
