The media reported on the approach of Trump's plane too close to a civilian Airbus

US President Donald Trump's Boeing 757 plane was spotted in the air a few miles from the civil Airbus SE A321 airliner operated by Spirit Airlines, flying in the sky over Long Island. This was reported by Bloomberg on September 17.

It is claimed that an air traffic controller from New York noticed similar heights and flight path of the presidential Air Force One with a civilian aircraft. He tried to warn the Spirit pilots to change course, and after they did not respond, he repeated the message, raising his voice and ordering them to immediately turn 20 degrees to the right, the material says.

In addition, it is reported that the dispatcher asked the crew to be more attentive and move away from the iPad.

How opposing American parties can benefit from the tragedy

Earlier, on July 27, the New York Times reported that the Pentagon intends to transfer over $900 million to an unnamed secret project, which is to repair and refit the Air Force One aircraft donated to Trump by Qatar. It will take a year or two to complete, during which time the aircraft will be equipped with the latest communication and protection systems.
