Shouldn't that be "Change in which we can believe" ? :)
<j/k>

Excellent series. Nice find with the OEM-engined DC8
I'm sure they'll be received with open 1s and 0s at JetPhotos...

If elected president, will Obama promise to stop plastering jets with his slogans?

"Yes we can!". Isn't that Bob the Builders?

I am all about the paint schemes and the aircraft, not who is in it. To show I am not endorsing any presidential candidate, here is my photograph of McCain's aircraft when he was in Detroit :lol: See... I'm not one sided :lol:

They are actually leases. McCain's aircraft is leased from Swift Air, and Obama's aircraft is leased from North American Airlines. Once they are done with them, they paint them back to the airlines colors and return them. And the other guy gets Air Force One :D

Nice shots...only pick would be not to crop so tight in the flying shots, but that's just me :D

You and me both....never knew this either. Since I work right next to the airport, I am gonna have to keep an eye out for these planes.

Nice shots, IMO. They capture the beautiful irony which is excess disguised as "change". Wonderful!
