Air Force One -- the US President's flying fortress -- which has been using the same clunky handsets since the Reagan administration in the '80s, has finally received some slick new phones that are much more in keeping with Obama's 21st century aesthetic. These new phones -- customized versions of the the Airborne Executive Phone (AEP) -- are provided by military contractor L-3 Communications, and they probably cost tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars each. In what must surely be some of the best news the President has received in the last couple of years, while the old system consisted of two different phones -- one for secure communications, the other for non-secure -- each AEP is capable of making calls in either mode from a single handset.
