US President Trump's helicopter was involved in a flight safety incident in Washington on the 4th. The White House said there was no personal safety risk involved in the incident, but the FAA has initiated an investigation. According to reports from the Wall Street Journal, CNN, and Reuters, Trump took off from outside the White House on a “Marine Corps 1” helicopter on the afternoon of the 4th to Andrews Joint Base, then transferred to the “Air Force 1” special plane to Los Angeles. According to flight safety regulations, before Trump's helicopter takes off, air traffic controllers at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, which is not far from the White House, should ban other planes from flying nearby. However, a passenger plane took off almost at the same time as Trump's plane.
