Catering Cart, Military Jet: How Trump Secretly Left Turkey Amid Iran Assassination Threat The image of a head of state whisked away by an airport catering truck has all the makings of a Hollywood thriller.
But in reality, this is precisely what happened to Donald Trump earlier this year when he was secretly transferred from Air Force One to a smaller military aircraft, an Air Force C 32A, after boarding the older jet in Ankara.
According to The Washington Post, the transfer came on the heels of escalating hostilities with Iran and raised questions about the use of the Qatari donated plane that Trump had touted as his preferred mode of transportation.
