“report” + “reportedly “ + “ABC Newz ‘sources’” = 100% bullshit ....

i think i’ll wait until something ACTUALLY happens and see what is that ACTUALLY happens ...

[billorites]

And all Senator Melendez received was some lousy gold bars.

I believe the problem here is that The United States Of America cannot and will not, fully support The President Of The United States Of America with the Security, Mobility, Equipment and Support to do the job the American People Elected him to do.

Traitors abound among us.

[Hyman Roth]

This is a total BS story.

[PeterPrinciple]

The aircraft, which has flown only a handful of times,

why would that be?

[TalBlack]

Something about this AF1 story doesn’t scan. How can we have become so inept at getting a high priority job done AT LEAST on time? What’s going on here?

[PubliusMM]

Apart from the optics, why hasn’t the government moved the order from Boeing to, say, Airbus?

[faithhopecharity]

from Qatar? This has “very bad optics.” Very bad.
(and hopefully the American technical experts will check that plane over THOROUGHLY before letting President Trump ride it!)

[Dan Zachary]

Not fair...It is better than my private jet...

[nwrep]

Well said.

[silverleaf]

Read better
It is being “ gifted” to the US Air Force and Hegseth will be there for the transfer
It will be gutted and retrofitted for POTUS use until Boeing delivers on the FOUR BILLION$ contract they havent yet fulfilled

Then it will be donated to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation ( as property of the USG)

There are NO TRUMP FINGERPRINTS on this arrangement
As was Reagan’s Air Force One jet donated when it was retired
Precedent established

[silverleaf]

So why have we sold them over $12 Billion in jets?

[silverleaf]

Precedent
Check Reagan

There needs to be consequences. We should cancel the contract and give it to Airbus.

[HP8753]

I’d check it for “ Bugs”

[citizen]

Exactly. Who built it? Who loaded the software?

A “gift” from quasi-enemies should be taken apart, figuratively, and examined 100%...to include all software & comm packages.

Someone controlling a critical sensor or messing with fly-by-wire and we have a dead president, along with all on board.

[null and void]

Pre-bugged or pre-bombed?

I'm reminded of a carved eagle plaque presented to the US embassy director by the Red Pioneers of the Soviet Union.

Or maybe a buncha pagers delivered to ISIS, et al.

A complete discussion of legal and constitutional issues ( none) and precedent of donating retired Air Force One as museum to Reagan Pres Library ( USG property)

AIR FORCE ONE: L3 Harris will be pulling all of the wiring and electronics out of the Qatari 474 and replacing them with EMP-proof replacements along with other secret defensive systems - all within 6 months.

I fly the 747 for a living, we have two jets from Qatar Airlines that are both 747–8, they are (were) last time I flew one not our best. They’ve been on the property for about a year now so I think the bugs are getting worked out. Not coming from the royal family, just one of the airliners that they parked and our company acquired them.
