If he really gets to fly the plane after he leaves office. Remember, the
Qataris want to get rid of it because it is too expensive to fly, and the
orange-one may be rich but not compared to that Qatari-league. They had 4
similar planes and alreaady gave one to Turkey.
And just for the record, it is even uncertain if that plane will even fly in
US-service. It is not fit to be converted into a cargo-aircraft or a passenger
plane (which is why the Qataris can't fnd a buyer) plus it has not got enough
power generating capacity to run the electroniscs that will be brought on
board. I'm not talking the anti-terrorism stuff, just the basic things like
communications and other electronics to run the country.
 
The aircraft, before beings able to be used by the President, will need to be
seriously stripped-down and then rebuilt. Chances are the 2 other 747-8s will
be finished first anyway.
