Am I right in thinking that Air Force One isnt an actual plane, but is any plane that is currently carrying the President?

Or have I got that completely wrong..?

Any plan controlled by the Air Force carrying the President is designated Air Force One by the radio crew to avoid confusion. If he's aboard an Army plane, it's designated Army One. If he's on the helicopter, it's designated as Marine One for the same reason as before.

Well, you have to be invited (due to security reasons) to attend his live speech according to news report I watched last night.

While my family was not authorized for the event, they were not allowed in visual range of the President...yet they could not leave the base for it was under lockdown until the President left. Funny thing is, they could not pick up the package either cause the guy they were to contact was not available. So the truck they rented to haul the package was useless. All in all, it was a wasted trip.
