Nixon was flying on it at the time Ford was sworn in elsewhere, immediately making the plane not Air Force One because not carrying the president.
That’s the story.
On the day that President Nixon resigned, he took off in Air Force One from Andrews Air Force Base, still bearing the presidential call sign. However, while in the air, President Ford was sworn in. When the plane landed, it was no longer carrying the president and therefore no longer Air Force One
Nixon was somewhere over Missouri when he stopped being President.
