Air Traffic Controller Prevents Scare Involving Spirit Airlines Jet and Air Force One
00:05
Air Force One encountered a tense mid-air moment, Tuesday en route to Britain with President Donald Trump aboard.
00:12
The plane crossed paths with a Spirit Airlines jet in U.S. airspace, prompting air traffic control to give urgent instructions.
00:19
Over Long Island, Spirit Flight 1300 appeared to converge with Air Force One, intensifying the situation.
00:25
At one point, the controller can be heard raising his voice and demanding immediate action.
00:31
Turn 20 degrees right now, he repeated, adding,
00:34
Traffic's off your left wing by 8 miles. I'm sure you can see who it is. Keep an eye out for him. He's white and blue.
00:41
The recording even captured the controller's growing frustration.
00:45
Pay attention. Get off the iPad.
00:47
Spirit Airlines later responded, saying its crew followed procedures and landed safely in Boston.
00:52
Safety is always our top priority, a spokesperson said in a statement to the Daily Mail.
00:59
Flight radar data suggests the two aircraft came within roughly 11 miles of each other.
01:04
Although this may seem distant, under controlled skies with President Trump aboard, it was deemed a serious matter.
01:10
Despite this, President Trump landed safely in London on Tuesday evening.
01:14
His arrival for his second state visit to the U.K. is described as one of the most elaborate in living memory,
01:20
featuring events hosted by King Charles at Windsor Castle.
01:24
Security for the trip is tight.
01:26
In London, 1,600 officers prepare for protests by the Stop the Trump Coalition.
01:32
Meanwhile, British officials emphasize the visit's economic significance.
01:36
Microsoft plans a $30 billion AI investment, while Google pledges £5 billion, notably impacting U.K. jobs and economy.
01:45
Beyond technology, the visit promises cooperation on nuclear and space projects,
01:50
including a Centrica and X Energy partnership for 12 modular reactors in Hartlepool.
01:55
These will power 1.5 million homes, boosting the economy.
01:59
With job creation, investment, and defense ties, Trump's trip draws transatlantic attention.
