Recovered history: Top kennedy military aide says lbj was badly shaken after assassination

I had not realized LBJ held the departure for the purpose you mentioned, but the hypothesis opens another possible venue for alteration.

Ridicule and denial to the contrary notwithstanding, David Lifton posited the transference of the body from the casket in the cabin to parts unknown of the aircraft. Drop shipment to Walter Reed to follow.
...

Right Phil. I think Lifton presents a very convincing case.

...
In Craig Roberts' Kill Zone: A Sniper Looks at Dealey Plaza the author prints two page-size diagrams of the aircraft type of tail number 26000, Air Force One in that era.

Roberts shows a floor hatch from the compartment where the casket was, to the rear cargo compartment with its hatch on the right side.
...

Oh, I had no idea Roberts covered that subject. Thanks.

Mary Ferrell (http://www.maryferrell.org/wiki/index.ph...Alteration) relates a very interesting paragraph:

Military chatter aboard Air Force One made repeated reference to the need for a forklift to be brought to the right front of the plane, where the "first lady" would depart. But Mrs. Kennedy left the plane with everyone else from the left rear.

Roberts claims a helicopter made a hot pickup from the right side of 26000 while attention was focused on the left and the party in the scissors-lift truck.
...

A forklift at Love Field/Dallas, right?
