In summary: I don't even know what to say to that. They would shoot it down in a heartbeat, and accept the public outcry later. You clearly do not understand the mentality of the United States military when it comes to protecting the White House and the President (and by extension, the entire government). They are very, very good at it.

Note the reflection from the glass toward the top right.

They could have done it on any Sunday.

And the issue was security? The president wasn't on the plane.

Were they worried someone is going to shoot it down?

Well ... the light streak they can just Photoshop out.

Oh wait. They could have just Photoshopped it all to begin with.

My guess is that it is standard operation not to announce any flights of Air Force One. Like any practice, exceptions inevitably arise.

Hence Caldera went to the White House, and all he ends up with is a light streaked picture.

I did hear it reported that the schedule for AF1 is always kept secret whether POTUS is on the plane or not.
