A plane carrying Senator J.D. Vance, the Republican vice presidential nominee, made an emergency landing at Milwaukee International Airport on August 16th after a malfunction mid-flight.
The plane’s main door seal malfunctioned, leading the pilot to declare an emergency and return to the airport. The aircraft landed safely and later continued its flight to Cincinnati.
“The pilot advised there was a malfunction with the door seal. After declaring an emergency, Trump Force Two returned to Milwaukee,” Vance spokeswoman Taylor Van Kirk said. “As soon as the issue was resolved, the plane returned to its originally planned flight path back to Cincinnati.”
This incident follows a similar emergency landing involving former President Donald Trump’s plane just a week prior.
