Mr. Transparency Strikes Again The $328,835 snapshots of an Air Force One backup plane buzzing lower Manhattan last week will not be shown to the public, the White House said yesterday. "We have no plans to release them," an aide to President Obama told The Post, refusing to comment further. The sole purpose of the secret photo-op, which sent thousands of New Yorkers running for cover, was to take new publicity shots of the presidential jet over the city. "The photos . . . are classified -- that's ridiculous," Councilman Peter Vallone Jr., said. New Yorkers said they could not understand how a president who shares intimate snapshots from the White House could justify classifying these. "So we're not gonna see the fruits of this cruel joke?" said Frank Antonelli, 39, one of the Wall Street traders spooked by last week's flyover. "I'm not surprised. Obama . . . wouldn't further all the bad publicity by putting out those pictures."
