And not in response to the attaqs but as part of a military exercise.

Similar to all our carriers conveniently being on maneuvers in the Pacific instead of waiting to get bombed at Pearl Harbor?

Oh, that makes sense. Wasn’t aware of the E-4’s nickname. I’m sure in the event of any national emergency we scramble aircraft like that for continuity of govt., etc..

Ja except that the pilots/crew had no idea that there was an attack until they were already en route to Offutt. Had they been following emergency maneuvers protocol either Cheney or Rumsfeld would have been on that plane.

The entire point of a mobile command center is that there is someone on-board who is in the chain-of-command, which nationally consists of a very short list of people, which is why these planes often "shadow" the VP or SecDef.
-
So…what does this imply? That they intentionally ditched the VP & crew?
