Air Force One, the iconic aircraft representing the US presidency, is undergoing changes under Donald Trump’s administration. While technically any plane carrying the president is called Air Force One, it is commonly associated with the Boeing 747-200 models in service since 1990. Trump has pushed for upgrades, including a new color scheme and two new 747-8 jets, but has expressed frustration over delays and costs, even considering a Boeing 747-8 from Qatar as a potential temporary solution despite ethical and security concerns.
