Air Force One Flies Over Martinez

President Obama stopped by San Francisco today and Craig Cannon grabbed a photo of Air Force one leaving the Bay Area through Martinez skies.

Did you see Air Force One fly over the skies of central Contra Costa around 3:40 p.m.? 

Craig Cannon, of Martinez, sure did — and sent photos to Patch prove it.

The plane appeared to make a turn southwest right over Concord after taking off from San Francisco, said Cannon, who took the above photos from the hills of Martinez Wednesday afternoon.

President Obama stopped by San Fracisco Wednesday for a short fundraising trip before heading to Los Angeles, according to a KTVU report.

Thank you for sending Concord Patch the photos, Craig!

I didn't see air force one fly by, but I did see an f-14 fly by. Awesome sight.

Craig, I thought the flights were super-secret. How'd you pull this off?!!! It's good stuff!

Paint the railroad trestle that crosses Alhambra. It's an eyesore.
