FAA: 27 AIRSPACE VIOLATIONS NEAR TRUMP’S FLORIDA ESTATE

-

Fort Lauderdale, Fla. — Federal officials say more than two dozen aircraft have violated airspace restrictio­ns near President Donald Trump’s estate in Florida. The Sun Sentinel reports that last month, the Federal Aviation Administra­tion reported 27 violations of the airspace restrictio­ns near Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach. In one instance, Air Force jets speeding to intercept an aircraft caused a sonic boom that rattled Palm Beach and Broward counties. The names of the pilots who received the violations weren’t released. Agency officials told the newspaper they’re investigat­ing. The FAA said it will reach out to South Florida pilots to educate them about the restrictio­ns activated within 30 miles of the estate when Trump visits.
