Default US Vice-President's July 2016 Visit

Please delete if not allowed, but thought it might be worth tracking the aircraft coming in for Jo Biden's this coming weekend.

Hi

I have heard expected arrival in Melbourne will be Friday to open the
Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre and visit the Boeing Factory, also attending the
Carlton v WC game at the MCG.
Meant to meet the PM in Sydney on Monday.

Hi

Would anyone have updated information to what I put above?
No media are discussing his arrival today, so info I received isn't correct.

Does the other aircraft 28000 or 29000 travel with the VP or does one stay at Andrews for the President?

Biden presented an award at the ESPYS sports awards in Los Angeles last night (Wednesday local) so if he left straight after I would expect him to arrive Friday morning.

Thanks Greg
I thought the C-32 was only used in the U.S for the VP and overseas for others like Secretary of State.

Thought / Hoping one of the VC-25 would be used.
