Paragraph regarding President Bush (#43) Use of TSTC Waco Airport
Paragraph states "George W. Bush during his Presidency flew in and out of the airport on, typically on Air Force Two (a C-32; the backup Air Force One was used in the first year of his first term, a VC-137, until it was retired; the current Air Force One, VC-25, cannot be used because of minimum runway length), during visits to his home at the Prairie Chapel Ranch."

This is incorrect. Any United States Air Force aircraft that the President flies on is designated "Air Force One" or "A1". The C-32/VC-32 is merely type aircraft as is the VC-25A (Boeing 747-200). Air Force Two (A2) is the reserved call sign for any United States Air Force aircraft that the Vice-President flies on.
