The USAF had one or two ex-airline 727s stationed at Andrews that were used for VIPs, but not part of the presidential flight. The pres flgt has 747s and 757s these days. The 727s were flown by AF Reserve pilots, who presumably flew 727s in their day job at an airline (US Air?). Don't know what the situation is these days since the US airlines no longer fly 727s. I can't accept that the USAF would rent out a plane to any football club.
