It would really be very inefficient to purchase a 747 as Presidential Aircraft as even a Learjet 45 will be able to cover the Philippines up to nearby Asian countries. We can just ask PAL to loan a 747 if the president is going for US or other distant ally countries (which happens only for a few times in a president's career). It would be best to consider what will be more effective to use within the Philippines up to a few neighbor countries our president visits a lot. Much more, let's purchase fighter aircrafts first, recon and interceptors to protect the Philippines and in case, escort the presidential aircraft, even our Grandpa S-211's, the fastest aircrafts PAF has on their active inventory so far will be of no match no protect Kalayaan One...

ang kapal din naman kasi ng mga mukha ng mga raliyista na yan..sila kaya umupo sa tayo ni PNoy, aywan ko lang.mas mga inutil nman sila..INUTIL

Guest		27-Mar-2012 00:01
siguro mas maganda po kung ang bibilhin na lang ni Pres Noy ay AH-64 APACHE,, di ba??? Maganda na, Presentable na, Nakakatakot tingnan, pero secured naman.

Guest		26-Mar-2012 23:59
it would be better if His Excellency would purchased a new presidential plane.

TACLOBAN		08-Jan-2012 07:31
Or buy A318..

TACLOBAN		08-Jan-2012 07:28
What if Pres. Ninoy buy's the old aircraft's of Philippine Airlines?... Or buy an CRJ-200 Or an A300 Or the old 747-200 of PAL

I think Pres.NoyNoy is right.Just take a commercial plane . Anyway he seldom travels out of the country. He should just appropriate that money to buying fighter jets and that my friends will be money well spend.RP needs security and si PNoy,simpleng Presidente,hindi magarbo.

morris		19-Jun-2011 19:44
parang pang domestic lang ang byahe nito ....... mas maganda pa ung mga airplanes ng airlines ng ibang bansa ...

jejemon		02-Jun-2011 04:43
ano naman ang sasabihin ng media.. and mga opposition na timawa kung bibili ng bagong eroplano? malamang batikos na naman.. kasi marami mahirap sa pilipinas kaya damay damay nalang... sino pa ang mahirap sila pa ang invincible.. konti na nga contribution nila sa tax collection ng pilipinas... sa kanila pa halos napupunta ang budget na binabayaran ng midlle class and upper clas... sila pa rin ang game na game sa mga rally.. very active...

TAMA BA AKO....

even just an airbus A320-200 plane is OK for being the presidential plane of the Philippines "para naman may gamitin ang ating presidente sa mga official travel niya sa pilipinas"

richard gumia grande		29-Dec-2010 02:36
juice ko naman sana may presidential plane na tayo kahit nakababata lang sa air force 1 charot,,,jejejejeje

Guest		28-Dec-2010 04:51
ya falcon 900 or 737-700ER, 737 cheaper than a319 or a318 i think

Guest		20-Nov-2010 09:03
tama lang na bumuli si pnoy ng bagong aircraft para presentable naman.

Guest		28-Oct-2010 13:56
yah, panahon na para bumili na tayo ng presidential jet para hindi tayo mukang kawawa sa iba. yung mga lumang jet ng PAL bilin na ng govt.

PILOT ONE		27-Oct-2010 15:21
yeah..i agree...P-Noy should buy a new Presidential Airplane...An Airbus A319 is enough and he should call it LAWIN ONE...with the Philippine colors painted over it and the THREE STARS AND THE SUN ON THE TAIL.

jokres		16-Sep-2010 18:01
Alin po ba mas makaka mura o sulit (cost effective) 737 o A319/A320? Kaya ako napadalaw sa site na ito dhil nakita ko sa image ng news may naka background na Presidential Plane. Siguro naman panahon na rin bumili ang pinas ng presidential plane para wag naman tayo laitin masyado ng ibang bansa. 737/A319/A320 pupwede na.

richard grande		12-Sep-2010 08:18
nakabili ba si pangulong arroyo ng bagong presidential plane sana para di tayo kutyain ng ibang bansa

Guest		24-Aug-2010 11:55
. . B737 7OO ER presidential aircraft i agree o the FALCON 9OO should it be 2 machines

July 5, 2010 After seeing all the PAF assets on display and noting that the F-28 presidential aircraft is at least 30 years old, the Manila Standard has quoted Pres. Aquino as saying, “I feel it is better for us to take commercial flights instead,” Now, how this statement makes the average PAF person who continues to fly on an aging C-130, F-27 or Huey feel?

Philippine Aviation		06-Jul-2010 14:28
Hi Aero, The Manila Standard has today covered Pres. Aquino's response to this aircraft: “I think we have all seen the assets of the Philippine Air Force on display. One of them is the F-28, the presidential aircraft that is at least 30 years old,” “I feel it is better for us to take commercial flights instead,” Mr. Aquino said.

aero		05-Jul-2010 13:18
well i wish that the president Noy shud think that its a must for him to buy a new aircraft whch has a medium range...the boeing 737 is the perfect one...the question is, does r government has a budget for this? o d kaya naubos ninakaw????

Alfred		01-Jul-2010 07:33
The VC-25 (Boeing 747-200B) of US 89th (Presidential) Airlift Wing is too expensive for the Philippines to acquire and based on the archives, they are planning to replace it as it is becoming cost inefficient to fly. I agree, they should replace them as it is not only a symbol but the life and security of our president is at stake on flying one of those aging fleets. Lucky you just showed the Fokker here because they have a good standing Boeing 737-300 to fly the President of the Republic of the Philippines.

Guest		29-Jun-2010 16:30
what about a used DC-10. pretty sure that would not be that expensive

jdc		23-Jun-2010 11:12
Our government should purchase a new one because it reflect to our country specially when this plane is in a foreign land.

REYMAR		21-Jun-2010 06:21
It Must replaced it with a Bombardier CRJ400. our goverment has a lot of funds to purchase BOMBARDIER.

Guest		21-Jun-2010 05:22
I suggest President-elect Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino to purchase a new Presidential Plane.

Guest		19-Jun-2010 19:49
the philippine airforce should buy a 737-700ER, has a medium range

org_zhens		11-May-2010 08:35
dpat jan katulad ng sa US ung airforce one

pagasa123		24-Apr-2010 07:41

sagar karvande		05-Mar-2010 14:36
i have seen this plane taking off from runway 06 RPLL from the out side of multinational national fence... i was so funny to see it when for the first time i saw it... i saw this plane approching the the runway o6, H4 threshhold hoinding point, with two black suv's following it.. it almost looked like some hollywood movie... this jeeps followed it right up to 06 thresh hold ... ... and waited till the plane tookoff ...

Lemuel Lazado		22-Feb-2010 13:19
I think it's time to replace this aircraft and it's not safe on our president..

yek rakki		18-Dec-2009 18:44
i hope that the Presidential Airlift Wing could include a more modern aircraft like an airbus a319 or embraer.

Guest		29-Jul-2009 04:28
James ---- that's a Fokker F28 "Fellowship" --- The President does use this for domestic travel. Maybe during the time you saw the President on a PAL or other plane the F-28 was undergoing scheduled maitenance.

James		31-Oct-2008 08:58
What plane is this? I thought the only presidential plane Philippines have is the B747-400, A340-300, A320-200(PAL Aircrafts) This plane is so cute, it doesn't even need any airport assistance by the looks of the door I think it has its own stairs. Why don't Pres. GMA change its livery and cabin facilities and go whooshing all around Philippines with that, instead of using PAL's jets whooshing around Philippines? By the looks of it, its a short-to-medium range aircraft/ and regional range aircraft.

jethro s.		05-Oct-2008 04:12
oooooooooooops! sinakyan yan ni GMA!sa legaspi
