The new Qatari ‘Flying Palace’ has arrived in the United States to be reconfigured as the next US presidential transport aircraft and to replace the aging VC-25A ‘Air Force One’ aircraft. Boeing is currently working to deliver replacement Air Force One jets to the Air Force, based on the Boeing 747-8i. However, deliveries were not expected until 2029—well after the end of Donald Trump’s presidential term. Trump, apparently, wants a jet for this current term and went shopping.
