[Scan-DC] What in the world was that, that just flew over?

[b_thom at juno.com]

Commerical-style four-engine jet transport aircraft with two fighters at
each wingtip, trailed by two more fighters, headed due west at low
altitude. Sighted at 10:48 a.m. from outside my listening bunker in
Alexandria, eight miles west of KADW, Andrews AFB. Didn't have the
scanner on, of course.

The four-engine transport seemed too small to be a 747 (I didn't have my
glasses on either); maybe it was an Airbus. Could be wrong. If it was a
747, I've never seen AF1 accompanied by such an array of other aircraft.

Something out of the ordinary.
