Trump Unveils Qatar-Gifted Boeing 747-8 as ‘Flying White House’
President Trump unveiled a Qatar-donated Boeing 747-8 jet set to become the next Air Force One. The US military spent an estimated $400 million modifying the luxury jumbo. Upgrades cover security, mission communications, logistics support and advanced technology. The interior remains largely unchanged, and the exterior now sports a fresh red, white, blue and gold paint scheme. The jet will undergo initial commissioning flights before officially transporting the president. Critics questioned the legality of accepting such an expensive gift, but the White House insists it complied with federal rules. Trump plans to donate the aircraft to his presidential library after leaving office.
