The agency reported that the Boeing 757’s wing collided with the rear elevator of a stationary VistaJet early on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The document specifies the involved Boeing jet by its registration number, N757AF. FAA records list its registered owner as DJT Operations I LLC.<\/p>\n
The Trump Organization’s website describes the jet as “one of the most famous private jets in the world,” and images of the jet display the registration number on its tail.<\/p>\n
An FAA statement about the incident indicates that the Trump jet had safely arrived at the airport around 1:20 a.m. EDT Sunday. However, during taxiing, “its winglet made contact with a parked and unoccupied corporate jet.”<\/p>\n
The incident took place in a section of the airport not under FAA control, and the FAA is currently investigating it.<\/p>\n
There were no reported injuries from the incident, and the extent of the damage remains unclear, as per the administration.<\/p>\n
It is also not known whether Trump was aboard the plane during the contact with the VistaJet aircraft.<\/p>\n
Trump, who is seen as the likely Republican candidate for president, is facing a trial in New York City related to charges of election interference concerning payments made to silence claims of an alleged affair with a porn star.<\/p>\n
He owns a residence at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach and had conducted a campaign rally in New Jersey just hours before the incident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
