This would be really cool, but it wouldn't work for the "last mile". It's too loud and obnoxious to land in cities.
Maybe if they could modify it to deploy Marine 1 mid-air, but to me that sounds a lot like stranding the president wherever you dropped him off and an necessarily high risk maneuver.
Maybe the president gets an ICBM-Force One in the future, but I bet they also keep an Air Force One equivalent around too.
