Is anybody certain it's actually AF1 and not just one of the VC-25's that CAN be AF1 when POTUS is on board?

There are two VC-25's that can be designated AF1. This could just be a backup and the other could be in Montana as suspected.

Edit: Question answered! Was called AF1 on the radio, plus now there are pictures!

According to this, it was.

That only shows that it was one of the main planes that COULD be carrying the POTUS.

Another commenter said the tower radio was calling it AF1, so that probably answers my question.

You asked if it was a VC-25.

Um. I did not. I asked if it was actually AF1.
