Qatari-gifted Boeing 747 joins presidential fleet as aging Air Force One retires

A Qatari-gifted Boeing 747 is being modified to join the U.S. presidential fleet as the aging VC-25A Air Force One planes retire. Three new VC-25B aircraft, including the donated jet, will replace the older models, with modifications ongoing at an airport in Texas. The transition follows scrutiny over security concerns and Trump's criticism of the existing fleet.
