Trump took his first flight on the new Air Force One last week on a trip to North Dakota, before taking it on its first international flight to Turkey for a NATO summit. Trump flew part of the way home on the old Air Force One before switching to the Qatari jet, reportedly<\/u> because the Secret Service advised him to use the old jet amid reignited tensions with Iran. Trump claimed he used the older jet \u201cfor old time\u2019s sake,\u201d while also telling reporters in Ankara he is \u201cnumber one on the kill list for Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n

What Have Aviation Experts Said About The Security Renovations?<\/h2>\n

Some experts have voiced concerns the administration did not allocate enough time to complete all security renovations, given the administration plans to donate the plane to Trump\u2019s library foundation in 2029. Richard Aboulafia, a military aviation consultant, told NBC News<\/u> some of the expected renovations, including equipping the plane with midair refueling capabilities, would be \u201cenormously time-consuming\u201d and could take until the 2030s. Hunter told the Times this week the administration likely had enough time to \u201caccommodate communications upgrades,\u201d but \u201cnot anything that would require significant structural work,\u201d saying a proper retrofit would take at least more than one year of work. Frank Kendall, secretary of the Air Force under the Biden administration, questioned whether the plane has \u201cprotective measures that Air Force Ones have against different types of threats\u201d in an interview with MS NOW<\/u> last week, noting the unusually quick turnaround for the plane\u2019s retrofitting. <\/p>\n

chief critics<\/h2>\n

Some Democratic lawmakers have heaped criticism on the Trump administration over the jet, taking aim at its cost and potential burden on taxpayers. In a to Meink in August, a cohort of Democratic senators including Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., accused the administration of making taxpayers fund $1 billion in security renovations, while also accusing Qatar of \u201ctrying to curry favor with the administration.\u201d The lawmakers said it is \u201cconcerning\u201d that the jet would only be used for a few years after undergoing expensive renovations, as the Trump administration has said the plane would be donated<\/u> to Trump\u2019s presidential library after his term ends. The lawmakers also wrote they were concerned by a New York Times report that said nearly $1 billion in funds from Sentinel, a modernization program for the country\u2019s nuclear capabilities, would be rerouted to the Qatari jet, voicing concerns over \u201cmismanagement.\u201d Democrats also stepped up criticism of the jet this week after Trump flew on it. The press account for Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., quoted a post from Cheung that included pictures of the jet\u2019s interior, writing<\/u>, \u201cAir Fraud One.\u201d Warren, in a post earlier this week, wrote: \u201cInstead of signing the bipartisan bill to make housing more affordable, Donald Trump is taking a joy ride in his $400 million taxpayer-renovated Qatari jet.\u201d<\/p>\n
