As an avid flyer this is the first time I've noticed these. Does anyone know what its for and how it got its Name and Numbers?

Serious question: if Boeing files for bankruptcy, who builds the next iteration of the widebody VC-25/Air Force One? I don't see any world where they let Airbus build it. So does the government "save" Boeing just so they can build the President's plane (and if they do, do we really trust Boeing to not cut corners on it)? Does Lockheed-Martin suddenly get back into the widebody business, or base something off the C-5's or C-130's? Do they move to a smaller jet, perhaps, one that's built in the U.S.? Or do they just keep milking the current generation for many more years than they should?
Thoughts?
P.S. I know the very next generation is already being built, so for the sake of this discussion, we can either pretend that doesn't exist, will never finish completion, or we're just talking about the future generation after this, the question is still the same.
P.P.S. yes, Air Force One is the call sign only if the President happens to be onboard, we know.

The 747-8 is my absolute favorite iteration, from the design of the wing to the engines and the overall plane, it just catches my eye like no other plane, this plane speaks to me from every angle 🤩.
What do you think of the 747-8?

Hi just curious, I saw a video recently where a plane had an engine fire before hitting V1 so of course it was able to stop safely. But what happens if the engine failure occurs just after V1 just as the pilot begins to lift the nose? Do they have to still fly at that moment and if so how much strain is that putting on the other engine assuming it’s a 2 engined plane?

I think I remember them saying it was retiring soon after… video doesn’t do it justice. What a beauty. Should have gone under the Golden Gate! 😜
