Frontier Airlines used to operate a charter plane for a company called Blue Moon. A little over 10 years ago, I was co-pilot on a flight where we carried the White House press corps from Andrews Air Force base to Fort Smith, Arkansas to cover a speech the President was giving.
This photo is re-touched to remove the flight attendants who were standing on top of the air stairs and someone who walked into the left side of the frame just as I took the picture. Otherwise, everything else is 'as it happened.'
[EDIT: I just found the original, un-retouched photo. I guess there were also a couple of people standing in line with Air Force One's main landing gear--I removed them, too.]
