9. On-board Hospital
In the movies, when someone on a plane starts choking on a fishbone, the first thing they do is call for a doctor. Most doctors probably just lift their SkyMall magazine up a bit higher to avoid getting into whatever mess someone created, but Air Force One doesn’t exactly give their doctors a choice.
On board the plane, the doctor is not only on call for every single flight, there is an entire hospital, along with an operating room and pharmacy, to help the President in the event he needs some Vicodin or some terrorist gets extremely ballsy and goes for broke trying to kill the President.
For the really long flights, the hospital even has the President’s blood type on board. There’s no evidence on whether the President pays a co-pay. He probably doesn’t because he has Obamacare.
