J.D. Vance (James David Vance) was sworn in as the 50th Vice President of the United States on January 20, 2025. A former U.S. Senator from Ohio (2023–2025), he rose to national prominence as author of the 2016 memoir Hillbilly Elegy and was selected as Donald Trump's running mate for the 2024 presidential election.
As Vice President, Vance travels on Boeing C-32A aircraft (a militarized 757-200) operated by the 89th Airlift Wing at Joint Base Andrews (KADW). The call sign "Air Force Two" is broadcast by whichever USAF aircraft the VP is aboard — making the call sign itself the definitive tracking signal regardless of which C-32A, C-40C, or C-37 is used for a given trip. For local hops in the Washington area, the VP uses Marine helicopters operating as "Marine Two."
The 89th Airlift Wing maintains a fleet of C-32As (tail numbers 98-0001, 98-0002, 09-0015, 09-0016) and supporting aircraft at Andrews. Call sign assignments follow federal law: the "Air Force" prefix applies to any USAF aircraft carrying the Vice President, exactly as "Air Force One" designates any USAF aircraft carrying the President.
