The jet Qatar gave Trump is valued around $400 million. It might cost taxpayers $1 billion just to upgrade it to presidential standards
The Boeing 747 Qatar donated to the Air Force One fleet costs roughly $400 million when new, but outfitting the jet to fit presidential requirements may cost up to $1 billion, according to experts. The Qataris have had trouble trying to sell the aircraft as 747s have fallen out of popularity within the aviation industry and are no longer manufactured.
