Aircraft of your nation's leader (MT-PMT, open)

[Hispania Major]

Background

Most people are likely familiar with Air Force One. That's the callsign applied to any US Air Force aircraft carrying the president (another military aircraft would use the name of that branch, as an example Marine One, while a civilian aircraft would be called Executive One), although its usual bearer is a pair of blue-and-white Boeing 747-200s (military designation VC-25) emblazoned with the US presidential emblem and the words "United States of America", specifically built for that purpose.

Besides the US, several other countries (France, Germany, UK, etc.) have their own state aircraft which perform a similar role to Air Force One, as a matter of security, convenience or national pride. However, they aren't necessarily purpose-built as executive aircraft. When not flying the head of state/government, they may be used for other purposes like emergency evacuations or aerial refueling ‒ such is the case with the UK. In addition, the executive might not get a dedicated aircraft for his/her own use, but a fleet that's shared with other government departments and officials. And some countries simply reject the idea altogether, viewing it as an inappropriate waste of taxpayer money, which could be better spent on other things. For them, the leader has to book commercially and suffer through the same airport queues and flight delays, just like everybody else.

As for the aircraft themselves, they come in all shapes and sizes. Some countries base their state aircraft on full-size airliners (Airbus, Boeing, etc.), which allows the most space for passengers and equipment. These aircraft can be highly luxurious, with private living and sleeping areas for the executive. Many more states select business jets (Gulfstream, Learjet, etc.) for their lower costs and ability to land in smaller airports. For short commutes, some heads of state choose to travel by helicopter rather than by car, for the increased speed, security and privacy. And some leaders are even themselves pilots (King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands being one of them), preferring to do their own flying.

Security features also vary a great deal among state aircraft. Some, like Air Force One, are fitted out with a suite of defensive and offensive systems, such as anti-missile countermeasures, radar jamming and encrypted military-grade communications. Others, like the Air China 747 used for presidential flights, are your run-of-the-mill production airframes, with little to no difference from the commercial version. Also different are the protocols surrounding executive flights. Some countries enforce a strict no-fly zone around the leader's aircraft, or even a shutdown of the entire airspace, while it's in use. Others allow it to take priority over other traffic, but without the right to shut down airspace. And a few treat it no differently than any other flight.

If you answered "no" to either of the previous questions, stop here. Otherwise, proceed to the rest of the questions.

I. Description of the aircraft

Circa. 1959

What is the primary aircraft used by YN's leader?
NEWYK K-61, based off the NEWYK Model Y.700 prototype for the N700.
Does this aircraft have an official name or nickname?
No, see Section III., Question "Does it have a special callsign, such as Air Force One or similar?".
When did this aircraft enter service?
The first of six K-61 aircraft entered service in 1956, with the second and third entering service in 1957 and the fourth entering service in 1958, and finally a pair of K-61B aircraft, a shortened variant of the normal K-61A, entered service in 1960.
Is it a dedicated VIP aircraft, or does it have other uses as well?
The K-61 family is utilized by the Royal Commonwealth Air Force for general VIP and personnel ferrying services, with two K-61A aircraft designated for the Royal Family and the Prime Minister's office. However, the K-61 family in its entirety can be used by either the Royal Family or the Prime Minister's office for transport.
Who is the legal owner of the aircraft? (select one)
[] The leader personally
[] The national government
[X] The armed forces
[] A commercial passenger airline
[] A private charter airline
[] An aircraft financing/leasing company
[] Other:
Is it registered as a civil or military aircraft? Tail number/code: (optional)
All six aircraft are registered under the Royal Commonwealth Air Force (RCAF), and were assigned tail numbers accordingly;
K-61A;
56-001823
57-000032*
57-000598*
58-002561
K-61B;
60-000513
60-000541

* These two airframe are utilized specifically for the Royal Family and Prime Minister and are designated as such. These two airframes are not used outside of their intended roles and training.
Who pays for the use of the aircraft?
All costs of operating and maintaining the K-61 family are handled by the Royal Commonwealth Air Force, which in turn receives its budget from the Gikai.
Who is in charge of operation and maintenance?
The Royal Commonwealth Air Force operates the aircraft, with two squadrons currently assigned to operate the aircraft; the 36th Airlift Wing, whose responsibilities include transporting the Royal Family, Prime Minister, among other personnel transportation responsibilities, and the 41st Airlift Wing, which is responsible primarily for transporting personnel as well as high ranking military officials.
Does this aircraft have a standard interior or a customized one?
The K-61A variant has a specialized interior, in which the forward third of the aircraft is dedicated to the Royal Family and/or Prime Minister, and features a lounge, conference room, among other amenities. The remainder of the aircraft interior is more representative of the economy class of the NEWYK N700 family, with 6 abreast seating and is largely used for military personnel. The K-61B variant is equipped with a 4 abreast seating arrangement, with each row alternating in directions (Row 1 faces forward, Row 2 faces rearward, Row 3 faces forward, etc.) with tables installed between each row that faces each other (ex. tables between Row 2 and 3).
Does it have any special security or communications systems installed?
The K-61 family does not have any special systems installed. Aside from the customized interior, all aircraft are virtually the same as the civilian NEWYK N700 and N700-200 (for the K-61A and K-61B respectively).
Image or description of the aircraft's appearance: (optional)

II. Travel arrangements

Does YN's leader fly alone or with others? (staff, media, the public, etc.)
Typically the Royal Family will fly only with staff (a procedure typically labeled "Personnel, Top Priority"), as media and the public are not permitted aboard any of the K-61 family aircraft. The Prime Minister, while ranked "Personnel, High Priority" (the second highest priority available for personnel transport), is similarly only allowed to fly with staff, as the Prime Minister and Royal Family typically fly the same two K-61A aircraft and occasionally fly other examples of the K-61 family.
Do they fly from regular passenger airports, or special ones reserved for them?
The RCAF utilizes all practical airports for the K-61 family. That being said, due to security protocols, the Royal Family and/or Prime Minister will often be flown into a secondary airport for any given city to avoid disrupting air travel to and from the city. The only limitations are those practical for the operation of the aircraft. Airfields or Airports that do not service jetliners or do not have adequate facilities (Runways, Taxiways, Aprons, etc.) to handle larger jetliners like the K-61 or N700 family are excluded from use by the RCAF.
Do they have their own transportation to the aircraft, or do they use regular passenger terminals?
The Royal Family or Prime Minister are typically given a special apron to park at when arriving at an airport, typically at corporate parking areas or cargo areas that can be requisitioned and secured by the Royal Commonwealth Air Force.
Do they have to undergo security, immigration or customs controls?
While the Royal Family and Prime Minister personally do not need to go through security, immigration, or customs, all staff and personnel needed for the flight are screened between a week and a month in advance and are continuously monitored by the Office of Central Intelligence. Additionally staff and personnel are thoroughly checked prior to passing into the Ramp Security Area for the aircraft and again before boarding the plane, if they do board the aircraft.
What class do they usually fly in? (if they fly commercial)
N/A.
Is YN's leader allowed to use the official aircraft for personal travel? (if it exists)
Only the Royal Family is permitted to use official aircraft for personal travel given their extremely high priority protection when compared to any other member of government.
Are family members of the leader allowed to use the official aircraft? (if it exists)
This same benefit is applied to all immediate members of the Royal Family (the Empress, her consort, and her children), and can be granted with expressed permission from the Empress to any further members of the Royal Family.

III. Flight planning and security protocols

Who is in charge of protecting YN's leader in flight?
The Royal Commonwealth Air Force and Office for the Protection of the Royal Family are the two organizations that are typically responsible for the protection of the Royal Family. The Prime Minister, however, is typically protected by both the Royal Commonwealth Air Force and the Commonwealth Ministry of Defense's Government Protection Force.
Who is in charge of protecting the official aircraft on the ground? (if it exists)
Typically the Ramp Security Area will be guarded by members of the Royal Commonwealth Air Force Military Police or the Military Police of the Royal Commonwealth Army. In cases where the Royal Family or the Prime Minister are visiting foreign countries, protection and security of the Ramp Security Area is instead typically handled by, again, the RCAF's Military Police or that of the Royal Commonwealth Marine Corps.
Does an aircraft carrying YN's leader have priority over other air traffic?
Yes, typically the Royal Family and Prime Minister's aircraft will be given priority over existing air traffic, with airports servicing the aircraft often issuing ground stoppages when the aircraft is taxiing to leave or taxiing to take off. When in the air, a 15 nautical mile "Hold Zone" is enforced, in which any aircraft flying within 15 nautical miles of the Royal Family or Prime Minister's aircraft must be put in a hold. In practice, this is usually done instead whenever the Royal Family or Prime Minister is within any given Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC).
Does it have a special callsign, such as "Air Force One" or similar?
While the aircraft itself does not have an official name or nickname, during flights it often utilizes special callsigns. All flights conducted for the Royal Family are done so under the callsign TAIYŌ One, while all flights conducted by the Royal Commonwealth Air Force for other duties are assigned a random callsign under the ARROW callsign (ex. ARROW 36) depending on the particular unit flying the aircraft.
Does it fly by itself or with a military escort?
The Royal Family and Prime Minister's aircraft will typically fly with an escort of several fighters and a singular aerial refueling plane depending on the length of the flight. If flying to an allied country, often times there will be a hand-off at some point in the flight where aircraft belonging to any of the numerous Collective Security Alliance Treaty (CSAT) organization members will take over on escorting the aircraft.
Are other flights banned or restricted when YN's leader is flying?
Flights are often restricted to a holding pattern or delayed when the Royal Family or Prime Minister's aircraft is passing through any given Area Control Center (ACC) and are required by Norudo law to be put in a hold when within 15 nautical miles of the formation. Airfields and Airports where the aircraft is arriving at must issue a ground stoppage when the Royal Family or Prime Minister's aircraft is taking off, on the ground taxiing, or landing.
Has an aircraft carrying YN's leader ever been involved in an accident?
No.
Has an aircraft carrying YN's leader ever been involved in a terrorist attack?
No.
Have there been any other incidents or controversies involving the leader's aircraft?
In 1959, airframe 56-001823 ("61823") collided with another aircraft at Enkyo—Sachiko Airport. Both aircraft sustained structural damage when 61823's wingtip struct the vertical stabilizer of a Northwest Orient Airlines Moriyama MC-6 jetliner, N-201NW, while taxiing to the Ramp Security Area. N-201NW was servicing Northwest Orient Flight 202, a scheduled route between Enkyo and Tokise, when it was ordered to stop between two taxiways during the ground stoppage. Nobody was injured and both aircraft were returned to service a few months later. It was later determined that a misinterpretation of ATC instructions led to N-201NW stopping too early, resulting in its tail being within collision distance of 61823.

Does this aircraft have a standard interior or a customized one? The entire ship was custom-built to the Queen's tastes and preferences.
Does it have any special security or communications systems installed? The airship is armed with cannons for defense, and is capable of carrying bombs and catapults for offensive use, although the latter has never been done in practice. Phones and radios don't exist in this world, but there is an aviary that houses trained pigeons for carrying messages to the ship, as well as a magical crystal ball that provides a view of things happening around the Kingdom. Communication within the ship is done using bells connected to pull strings, steam-powered pneumatic tubes, and two-way sound pipes.
Image or description of the aircraft's appearance: (optional)

The hull is built from wood and resembles that of a traditional ship, but longer and more flattened. It is attached to the envelope, which is made from a similar fabric as the sails on a sailing ship, and held together with metal hoops (like a barrel) mounted externally, as well as wooden ribs radiating out from a hub on the nose (like an umbrella) and extending along the sides, mounted internally. The Arevalan royal coat-of-arms is painted on the envelope.

The cabins are located within the hull, are lavishly upholstered and decorated, and have large stained-glass windows to let in natural light. The Queen and the captain have their own private cabins, which consist of a bedroom, bathroom and personal study. The crew share 2 to 4 people in a cabin.

Lift comes from gas bags inside the envelope, filled with air containing magical levitating powder. In addition, levitation spells have been applied to the parts of the ship itself, to make them lighter and easier to lift. Ladders and catwalks allow the crew to go into the envelope to carry out repairs, as well as enter the engine rooms.

Propulsion and heating come from steam boilers burning wood or coal and fed by water tanks. The boilers, fuel stores and tanks are located on the bottom deck for stability and low center-of-gravity, as well as easy refilling. Steam from the boilers is piped upward to two reciprocating engines powering four 6-blade side propellers, as well as a turbine engine powering a large 8-blade tail propeller. The propellers are shaped like windmills, with wooden blades that can be adjusted and replaced.

Speed is controlled by changing the amount of steam entering the engines using valves. The side propellers are reversible ‒ the tail propeller isn't. Engine commands are relayed to the crew using string-operated bells. Steering is controlled with a tail-mounted rudder connected by ropes to the captain's wheel, as well as by reversing the propellers on one side of the ship.

Do they fly from regular passenger airports, or special ones reserved for them? Airports don't exist in Arevala. The Pégaso is an airship, so it can basically take off and land anywhere.
