Jack P Taylor's Political and Historical Curiosities


Aug 20, 2017

It’s good to be back from my summer holidays and thanks for continuing to listen.

This week’s episode covers a history of Air Force One and Presidential aviation more generally.

It’s a fascinating history, although I would say that wouldn’t I?

The planes form part of a tale covering assassinations, resignations, legislation, and terror attacks.
