It seems that the folks in congress that write the budget have penciled in some extra airplanes to the Air Force budget that the military didn't ask for (click here). The Air Force apparently asked for one C-37 and three C-40s. Congress added two more C-37s and two more C-40s. It is interesting to note that these planes just happen to be the type that the Air Force uses to fly members of Congress around. It also interesting to note that the C-37 is really a Gulfstream G550 business jet and the C-40 is a Boeing 737-700 business jet. Spend away!
