What a great story about the 96 year old Navy veteran, Russell W. Snyder who to date has been the oldest 8th June Honor Flight Traveler and to put the icing on the cake, his son, Dennis surprised his father by booking a limousine, taking them to the airport in style.

His son Dennis, who is an Air Force Veteran, was along for the day to be his father's guardian on the June 8 Flight. He said his father, who is still independent aged 96, had never been in a limousine up to 2011. Dennis said that even though it meant spending a bit more money it was well worth it. His Dad really enjoyed it.

The recorded temperature in Washington DC on the day was 110 degrees. But Russell W. Snyder said he was not bothered by the heat, even though the high temperatures made some of the female guardians unwell. He said that he was very happy to have his son along with him as his guardian and he was impressed with the hospitality of the Findlay volunteers.

It's lovely to hear stories like this and when you think about it here in America it used to be that many of us would relate riding in such a fine automobile to being like the President of United States. Of course these days it is a completely different story.

But if you think about it, really it is only 80 years ago or so when the U.S. government was commissioning special vehicles for the use of the President. These limousines are traditionally equipped with defense counter-measures, armor plating, features of special convenience and advanced communications technology.

Although the first U.S. President to travel in an automobile was President William McKinley, the first Presidential limo was built for and used by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939.

This first Presidential Limousine was called the Sunshine Special; it was a Lincoln V12 convertible with grab handles for the Secret Service, a two-way radio, a siren, running lights and extra width running boards.

Rumors have it that the Presidential limousine which went into service in 2009 has a price tag on it of around $300,000. Even though this information has been sourced in Wikipedia it is not confirmed, so for now it is just a rumor!!

For the rest of us who aren't expecting to be President of the United States of America, why not enjoy the feeling of travelling in the ultimate style in a luxurious limousine.
