A luxury Boeing 747, gifted by Qatar to the U.S. government, is awaiting a specialized overhaul to serve as the next Air Force One. While Trump welcomed the aircraft's arrival, which coincided with his Middle East visit, there are significant ethical and legal concerns surrounding it. The plane's ownership will officially pass to the Air Force before repairs and enhancements begin. Experts indicate that outfitting such a large aircraft could take years, suggesting that Trump may leave office before it's ready for his use.
