Air Force One is the air traffic control callsign for any United States Air Force aircraft with the President of the United States on board. It has an impressive pantry with all the President's favorite snacks. It also is prone to hijinks involving small robots getting on board to shut down the entire United States Defense Grid. It's useful like that.
