Because it is a Trump plane, one of a kind, would bring in many more dollars over true value.
So here is another problem. Melania has said she is leaving DC 2 days after Trump is sworn in according to TMZ.
So how is she going to fly back and forth.
If she uses govt assets that will be a crap storm every time...despite things like Obama going on a joy ride to NYC for a date night, etc.
She could use Trumps helicopter but is it safe enough?
We really are in new territory in so many different ways.
I would think one of a kind planes are like houses or cars, you’ll never get back the money you put into them. You customize them to your tastes, but the people who have the money to buy them have different tastes, and will gut the house to build it to their taste.
