Why is JFK Jr.'s plane being kept at Quantico Marine Base where Marine One (the presidential helicopter) is kept?
I would want it to be fluid to the Mission, of course. I trust the producer and director to reveal him to the public at their own pace. I believe they are doing so. In my opinion, they are dropping crumbs for people like me and others to start spreading the "trailer" before "opening night." I love my country like you cannot believe, so I would do whatever it takes to make sure opening night is a success for her (USA).
If I were part of the production team, I would have access to the information needed to know when would be the right time to bring the star on stage. All I can say as an outsider looking in is that plenty of foreshadowing is a very effective method by which to bring the star front and center for maximum acceptance by the audience, especially when the audience believes that the star does not exist.
