Former President Donald Trump announced Thursday that the MAGA plane that frequented his rallies during the 2016 presidential campaign would soon be returning for upcoming events.
The iconic Trump plane – a Boeing 757 – has been kept in a storage facility in upstate New York, as the former president was not allowed to use it during his presidency, according to Trump’s statement released by the Save America PAC.
The plane is being restored and updated in a Louisiana service facility. The plane will be receiving updates to its Rolls-Royce engines, inspections and a new paint job.
“When completed, it will be better than ever, and again used at upcoming rallies!” Trump said.
