The Boeing C-22 approached San Diego Field, carrying several important individuals, including the President of Calizorinstan. However, it was a routine flight for the C-22, having flown them back from a conference in Bakersfield concerning the request for proposals of a new presidential aircraft to replace the C-22. President Arnold was sitting in the front row of seats nearest the cockpit, or as far front as he could be, examining papers that the airplane makers had prepared for his scrutiny when the pilot announced "We are preparing to land at San Diego Field"

The President assumed that things would go like usual and he just sat back and reviewed the papers. Vice President Caleb Henderson, who was sitting beside him said "John, do you know which proposal you favor to replace the C-22?" President Arnold replied "I am currently favoring the Aeromax C-86 proposal, which is essence a smaller, sleeker and more aerodynamic 737, but think 787 in looks. The ARDC proposal looks good though, they propose an aircraft that looks a lot like a BAC 1-11, but has more swept wings and is only two engines. Well.." Then they felt the C-22 jolting as it touched the runway and then it swerved to onside and the President yelled "Captain, is everything okay..OH!" They ran off the runway and the President was jerked out out of his seat and slammed against the bulkhead, and they heard the splash of the plane going into the water...

Minutes later, the Coast Guard cutters raced to the scene of the crash to discover people climbing out the back of the C-22, and President Arnold finally emerged out of the back, and he feebly swam towards the cutter and a diver jumped out of the back and helped the President into the boat. The diver asked "Is everybody okay?" The President looked up and he said "Everybody survived with no injures, I got beaten up some, I think I fractured a rib.."

The next day, the headlines came out "President Arnold injured in plane overrun at San Diego Field." President Arnold smiled wearily and he said in his hospital bed "Here come the foreign dignitaries that will come calling." The nurse said "President, it could've been a lot worse, but you did break an ankle bone." John nodded and he said "No wonder my right foot hurts like weaselspit." He leaned back and he sighed and he said "I expect after the newspaper posted the phone number for the hospital, I will get a flood of calls."
