DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR: A famous world traveler is the subject of our "Ask CNN" segment.</s>TIM SAULSBURY, COLUMBUS, OHIO: My name is Tim Saulsbury from Columbus, Ohio. I wanted to ask</s>CNN: With each incoming president, do they get a new Air Force One or does the plane have to be in service for so many years?</s>MAJOR GARRETT, CNN WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: There are a fleet of planes. And they carry over from administration to administration. And every plane the president occupies is Air Force One. One of the fleet was retired in 1998. That plane was most famous for carrying President Kennedy's body back to Washington from Dallas, where he was assassinated in 1963. The press corps sits in the back of the airplane, while the president's offices are up front. President Bush recently summoned reporters up to his office to comment on the arrest of FBI counterintelligence agent Robert Hanssen. Air Force One is generally considered one of the safest planes in the sky, but turbulence rocked the craft in 1996, leaving behind this wreckage. And as powerful as Air Force One is, it is not sometimes more powerful than mud -- at least it wasn't in Champaign, Illinois in 1998.
