On Sept. 11, 2026, the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, a retired pilot gave an account. He flew the presidential jet for former President Bush. He remembered that morning. A veteran and a woman were on the plane. They offered what they remembered. Their narratives told the events on board at the time.
Separately, the new Air Force One was unveiled. An emergency slide deployed by mistake. NBC News reported it. The slide was seen on the jet.
