Thats not the VC-25 (747-200) that is normally Air Force One; its the C-32 (757-200) that he was on, since he wasn't president yet when that video was shot. Cool vid though.

Cool vid though. | The B757 does not have a flight engineer's station. If you noticed on the r/h side of the cockpit there is a FE station. Also that flight deck does not look like the B757's flight deck. The B757 has 4 main DU's plus your EICAS DUs (upper and lower).
Also when he boards AF1, and meets the pilot, you can see that the pilot is wearing an AF1 patch on his right breast.

Funny thing is the US is shopping around to replace the aging 747-2 and their looking at the A380.
Edit: It's the 757 because the plane has winglets, the 747 doesn't have winglets. And cool to see an AC A319 or 20 in the background.

didn't notice the winglet in the begining... they defenitly mixed footage around. Shots of the cockpit also showed 4 throttle leavers on the pedestal.
USAF is replacing AF1 either with the B747-800 or A380
