Source

Awhile back, I added this: "The presidential and VIP flights fall under "whiteside." "Greenside" operations include support of Marine Corps Combat Development and operational test and evaluation, such as with the V-22 Osprey, a vertical take-off and landing aircraft."

The general distinction of greenside and whiteside I know from working in the squadron in 1981-1983. -- Maurreen Skowran Maurreen 16:55, 19 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Tail Code

My source stated that HMX-1's tail code is MX, but I haven't been able to verify this... none of the photos I found of the squadron's helicopters, VIP or otherwise, had a tail code at all. bahamut0013 ♠♣ 22:44, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
