A Note on Government Planes

187 Upvotes

For now, government planes flown by various politicians will continue to be allowed, but the political comments need to be toned way down.

Whether you like the people flying them or not, those planes belong to the federal government (in the case of the US) and not to any individual who currently occupies a position of power. I'd hate to get to the point where I have to remove or ban pictures of Air Force One/Marine One etc or the planes of other governments.

Inherently political posts will be removed. Whether you like Trump and Vance or not, the planes don't belong to them.

I went first time plane spotting last weekend, it is not perfect, but I am pretty happy with this photo (ignore the blur in the foreground).

Today seems to have been the last sunny day in a while so I decided to go and enjoy some landings at runway 06/24R. I arrived right on time for the King of the Skies at an airport that apart from a few exceptions mostly sees A320s and B737 (In the early morning it’s usually more diverse.) Captured with a IPhone 17 Pro.

I know this isn't the best camera work (the wing is in the way a good deal of the time), but I haven't seen many side by side takeoffs like this, much less been a part of one. I was in a 737 Max8 (which no doubt many of you can tell from the winglets, I couldn't, but I know a lot of you can) on my way to LAX and I think the other plane is an Embraer (correct me if I'm wrong). Anyways, I thought it was cool and wanted to share it with you all

I was at EWR plane-spotting and caught photos of this ASJ-220! I've heard about it but is it rare so to say? I took these photos on my phone in a rush but I took better photos on my camera. I will post them soon ;).

Someday I’ll see a 747 for the last time, and I probably won’t even know it

Went to California (LAX) for the first time, and well I guess the first stop was quite predictable
