President Donald Trump returns from a NATO summit in Turkey on an older Air Force One aircraft rather than the newly gifted and modified jet he used to arrive, according to reports from both outlets. The Independent and the Winnipeg Free Press describe the homebound flight as taking place on a legacy, baby-blue Air Force One, contrasting it with the red, white and navy blue plane that Trump reportedly arrived on. The Qatar-gifted aircraft is described as retrofitted and has been presented as the newer option for presidential travel. Both accounts characterize the departure from Turkey as a surprise change in aircraft choice, emphasizing the difference between the aircraft Trump arrives on and the aircraft he flies back on. While the reports focus on the plane swap itself and provide consistent descriptions of the two aircraft’s appearances and provenance, they do not, in the provided text, detail the reasons for the change or any official explanation from U.S. officials.
