Problems plague E-4B that was on full time alert
U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates must be fuming in Singapore when the E-4B that was flying him to a planned six-day tour of Singapore, the Philippines and Alaska was plagued with technical problems.

The flight into Singapore was delayed for half day and on Sunday, he had to delay his trip to Manila for a day as the plane broke down again.

The Pentagon has four E-4Bs but this is the only one operating on full-time alert.
