Donald Trump‘s famous private jet reportedly got into a minor collision with a parked plane at a Florida airport over the weekend — and the Federal Aviation Administration is now investigating.
The former president’s Boeing 757 emblazoned with the name “Trump” landed at West Palm Beach International Airport in the early morning hours Sunday. As you probably know, Trump lives nearby at his sprawling Mar-a-Lago estate.
The FAA says the aircraft was taxiing on the tarmac when its winglet — a short vertical fin on the wingtip used to reduce aerodynamic drag — clipped a stationary corporate jet that was unoccupied.
Although the FAA did not identify Trump’s plane by name, the agency gave some media outlets the tail number, N757AF, which is registered to DJT Operations I LLC – one of The Donald’s businesses.
Whether Trump was on his jet or not at the time of impact was unknown, but he would have been just fine in any case. It seems no injuries were reported. As for damages, the FAA did not indicate if the planes had sustained any.
Meanwhile, on Saturday, Trump — the presumptive Republican presidential nominee — held a campaign rally in Wildwood, New Jersey.
Trump’s been on trial in Manhattan Criminal Court for allegedly falsifying business records to cover up a $130,000 hush money payment to a porn star to help win the 2016 presidential election against Hillary Clinton.
The trial continues Thursday with the cross examination of Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen.
