Of course not, there was no ´Air Force One´.
To make it clear, any aircraft can be AF1, as it will be the call sign of the (Air Force) plane that is carrying the US president. As Bush wasn´t here, there was no AF1 either.
And since most people associate AF1 with the B747 (VC-25A) that the president usually flies, those were not here either. It was an E-4B.

It ain't an Air Force One(president of the Usa is in Calafornia) beside that it ain't a VC-25 but an E-4B

I had to pick up my dad, he arrived just before 14:00 from Zurich and w went back home right away.

I saw it when I drove by it on my way to the A4. Also my dad noted that there where unusually alot of VIP escortes on the A4.

Exactly; when the US president is on a plane, the callsign automatically becomes Air Force 1. No matter what type of aircraft it is.

Shame I missed the E-4B

What were all the Americans besides 75-0125 (84-0110, 90-0300, 01-0076) doing on EHAM??

I dont know exactly but I think these:

52°19'9.02"N 4°46'25.07"O for the E-4B

and the RA-86572 some were around: 52°19'10.23"N 4°45'21.54"O

look it up in google earth.

Both places arent public I believe.
