    I was just posting some interior shots of the plane. I don't give a shit if Trump is filthy rich, broke, or whatever. He's not particularly relevant at the moment.

    I would like to know what the last two flights were....We know that DJT was not on them....If it were my plane I would leave one take-off on the engine just in case.

    This seems like bad planning.

    a billionaire can't replace a plane, do you ever listen to yourself? I did not mean to interrupt you talking to yourself in the mirror

    There is no need to replace it, it simply needs an engine, thought it does suck a lot of jet fuel. If Trump changes his mind and decides to use it again that would be interesting.

    Trump Inc has other planes.

    The picture features Trump entering what appears to be a Cessna Citation X, a super-midsize business jet. The full aircraft isn’t visible, but tail number N725DT is a 1997 version registered to the Trump Organization.

    Interesting:

    "Many people have asked about the beautiful Boeing 757 that became so iconic during the Trump rallies," Trump said. "It is now being fully restored and updated and will be put back into service sometime prior to the end of the year."

    His current private plane is a Cessna. It doesn't even have standing headroom. Not making this up. I couldn't.

    Trump's plane has been sitting for a long time. if he had the dough he would have fixed it by now. His businesses are not doing well.
    I get donor requests from him and Junior every day. Trump said he was self-financing. So he does not need our money.
