[edit] Relation to Air force one article

I believe that this article is somewhat related to the Air force one article so i have created a link from there to here and added picture of the nicknamed airforce three C-40B courtesy of USAF (Public domain).

[edit] Payload data

The payload data given is for the US Navy's C-40A. The USAF has their C-40B/C configured for VIP transport so there is no cabin cargo capacity, and less passengers are carried. The C-40B/C also has a greater fuel capacity for longer range. The CFM56 engines used have been derated to 24,000 pounds of thrust. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.112.4.233 (talk • contribs) 00:13, December 18, 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that is true. In many articles about aircraft in wikipedia, there may be many variant of that aircraft, all having different specs. In most cases, only one variant has the specs listed. In some cases, this is the most common variant, or perhaps it may be the only variant that has publicly available sources, or it just may be the one that the author picked to include here. I have changed the header to make clear the specs where about the "A" model.
