According to a report by Simple Flying, an aircraft gifted to former U.S. President Donald Trump by Qatar, described as the ex-Qatari Air Force One, suffered an unexpected deployment of its inflatable emergency evacuation slide. The incident occurred just moments before Trump was scheduled to board the aircraft for departure.
Due to the sudden deployment of the emergency slide, the aircraft's takeoff was temporarily interrupted. The occurrence resulted in a brief delay to Trump's planned flight to Dallas, though further details regarding the cause of the deployment or subsequent maintenance actions have not been disclosed.
