Here's an audio file of when Air Force One came to Reno a few years ago. It's amazing how many times we've seen that plane here in recent years. At any rate, listen toward the end of the clip for the plane violating the TFR receiving a warning of "being shot down" by the Air Force. I'm glad that wasn't me! This was prior to June 2004 but I can't remember the exact date. I put the file in MP3 format back then. Maybe fall '03? The clip has been edited to remove the 'dead air' between transmissions.
The photos are from October, 2006, when Air Force One was back for another visit. This time I took pictures. The close up of the front end even made the local paper. I may not always like who's on board but I sure like that airplane! :-D

Haha. "Vector south immediately or you may be fired upon" Sounds like a good incentive to turn to me!
Check your Notams people!

My friend and I were building time and we were on a long cross country (Dupage IL to Plastburgh NY) and per NOTAM, we monitor 121.5 if able. As we were up and around new york we heard a USAF get on gaurd and started calling to an airplane that was in a restricted zone. There were not threatens to shoot down but there was a "Contact the FAA or turn south immediately"
The funniest part was, the call went like this "Aircraft....uh...... thi....thir.....thirteen miles....uh....nautical..... south of ...... the dunkirk airport.......... squaking....one......two....uh....zero-zero....... mode three.....you-are-in-violation-of-a-restricted-airspace.......contact the.... uh..... FAA or... turn-south-immediately"
