conehead Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 From the article: “President Donald Trump’s personal Boeing 757-200 has been involved in a ramp strike while parked at New York’s LaGuardia airport. The aircraft, which features a distinctive dark livery with Trump’s name on the fuselage, was struck by a Beechcraft A36 Bonanza on 28 November.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airband Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Quote How’s this for a few degrees of separation? Earlier this week a private jet clipped the famous Trump emblazoned Boeing 757 while it was parked at its usual home of La Guardia Airport in New York. Out of about 20,000 private jets worldwide, it turns out the apparent owner of the Global Express that crashed into the personal aircraft of President Donald J. Trump is someone he may be familiar with. Jocelyn Wildenstein, who gained notoriety for her addiction to plastic surgery and filed for bankruptcy in May, apparently still owns a full-floor apartment valued at $11.75 million in the 91-story Trump World Tower, an East Side high rise the President opened in 2001 and passes whenever he visits the United Nations. 'the Global Express later departed to Hartford, Connecticut, which is home to a Bombardier service center' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
