USAF C 32A 2 640“Just a nice Picture...!”

Early Sunday morning, 25 April, a nice C-32A of the USAF paid a very short visit to Rotterdam-The Hague Airport. It made a fuelstop while flying to Dubrovnik, Croatia, since the B757 cannot fly that distance non-stop, due to its range.

The C-32A (serial 99-0003, msn 29027) belongs to the 1st Airlift Squadron of the 89th Airlift Wing, which is based at Andrews AFB (MD), near Washington DC.

This C-32A - one of eight in USAF service - is a military passenger transport variant of the commercial Boeing 757, that provides transportation for United States leaders to locations around the world.

The aircraft is also used as "Air Force Two", although other aircraft (such as the Boeing C-40 Clipper, C-37A, C-37B and VC-25A) in the inventory can serve as Air Force 2, whenever the Vice President is onboard.
