Label TextPart of President Reagan’s routine on Air Force One was to come back to say hi to whomever was traveling in the “guest cabin,” which as I recall had seats for eight people. It could be members of Congress, Cabinet secretaries or sometimes—on trips that no one wanted to go on—junior White House staff. It was fairly common for him to change into casual sweat pants on longer flights. Here, he is laughing at the punch line to his own joke during a trip to Belgium.On View
