    No plans that i've heard of yet for an Irish visit i'm afraid. He's been invited by the Queen to visit the UK for a state visit so a spin across the water when that happens might be your best bet.

    They do afaik,the Globemaster 3. They'd need all that room for the amount of kit that the US President brings abroad with him.

    Anybody see Star Trek 4 i think, the Voyage Home, where they go to 1980's San Francisco and Mr Checkov asks a cop for directions to the nuclear Wessels.

    The OP sure reminds me of that ;);)
