US President Donald Trump announced a replacement for Air Force One on Friday. The aircraft was gifted by Qatar and dubbed “flying White House.”
At Joint Base Andrews, Trump praised the workmanship that transformed the jet into a luxury flying presidential residence. He highlighted the quality of materials used, including wood panelling and gold accents.
The plane’s interior features leather seats and plush carpets. A framed print of a duck swimming in Washington’s Reflecting Pool is among the patriotic-themed decorations.
Trump emphasized the aircraft’s size and engine power, stating it flies further and faster than any previous Air Force One. He said the new jet would likely participate in Independence Day celebrations on July 4.
The US government has contracted Boeing to deliver two new 747-8 aircraft for the presidential fleet. However, the program faces delays and cost-overruns.
