Sticky Thread For Mid-Atlantic MilAir 2022

[krokus]

Sure wasting a lot of expensive jet fuel these days for his CAP weekend's etc.
But that cost is just for us little people Never had a President who hated staying at the White House so much.
The WH weekend staff sure have had it easy the last 1.5 years .Maybe good time for the tour groups

The previous resident of 1600 spent just as many weekends in Florida & NYC. So there were plenty of CAP used then, too.

By the way, yesterday on final approach to the White House Marine One (not the decoys) blinked the landing lights a couple of times. Don't think I've seen that before. Was he saying 'hi' to me or is that some signal to the White House?
