Vienna Airport had a special visitor on Thursday with the 98-0001. It is a Boeing VC-32A operated by the United States Air Force. The US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was on board.
The politician met Foreign Minister Alexander Schallenberg and Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen for a working meeting in Austria. Pompeo was previously in Slovenia, which is why the plane from Slovenia landed in Vienna. In the evening, the US Secretary of State will also meet Treasury Secretary Gernot Blümel and Federal Chancellor Sebastian Kurz.
The Boeing VC-32A is a special version of the Boeing 757-200. The 98-0001 was delivered in 1998 and is a United States government aircraft. It was used by Mike Pompeo on the day of the landing in Vienna.
