Corrected entry: In the scene where Snake locates the wreckage of Air Force One, you see the right-hand side of the tail section bearing the star-spangled banner. The flag is displayed with the field of stars to the rear of the aircraft, the opposite way round from the way it is on the right-hand side of the real Air Force One.

Correction: This is NOT the Air Force One as it looks today or in 1981. This is the Air Force One of an alternate timeline where World War III has taken place and New York has been turned into a prison island. In this timeline someone apparently decided to turn the flag on the right side the other way around (so as to have the stars facing toward the rear).
