  • Each time President Trump spends a weekend away from the White House, there’s a massive military effort to protect him from threats… including from above. TODAY national investigative correspondent Jeff Rossen was given rare access to present a dramatic demonstration of how the Air National Guard keeps presidential airspace safe.

    This happened to me when I was a system operstor for an aerial survey company.. The pilot of our small Cessna wasn't feeling well that day and wasn't communicating on his radio or had turned it off. He wasn't feeling well and we were just going through the motions and traveling to the site to survey. The jets appeared out of nowhere and were much closer to us. They simply pointed at the pilot and pointed down. He got on the radio and luckily tere was a tiny airport nearby. The Seret Service interviwed us separetly for a few hours and inspected the plane. The pilot was so upset because he is usualy so strict on protocals and checking for tfr's- much less never would turn off his radio. One guy said we flew under Air Force One and another guy said we flew over Obama golfing. They told us another guy had broken the tfr and didn't understand what was going on and spoke limited English. He thought the jets were there to say "hello" and then started taking pictures. The Secret Service said if you don't land right away like we did, they will get in front of you and blast you with one of the jets propulsion. If you don't land after that, they shoot you down. Luckily the man got the point after they blasted him with the afterburner. Unfortunately for our pilot, it happened over his hmetown of Stuart, FL and made the local papers. We were based out of Orlando and our bosses were very upset. They didn't fire the pilot and I think he still works for them- he is a really good guy and the only day he ever relaxed his ways, fighter jets get scrambled followed by interogations by the Secret Service.

      It is interesting. Never had it happen for real. However my flight instructor got some fighter jets to practice intercepting us one day and and it was neat seeing them up close. Closest I had been to a fighter jet in the air was either air shows as a kid or when I would call in CAS 9 LINE (a close air support air strike). One time I got to go on an active air craft carrier and saw active flight operations but that was all take offs and landings so different than seeing them do full speed fly overs.

      @@ehudkelevra7456 When we were flying that day, the jets were not there one second and then right next to us the next second. They were there even before the pilot got a ping noise/alarm of a nearby aircraft. We were confused the whole time flying to the area we were to survey because there were no other planes anywhere- well it was because of the TFR duh. We thought we flew over Obama playing golf, but the Secret Sevice said we flew right under AIr Force One and said some weird saying I didn't get. Those jets were so fast and breath taking to see right next to you super close on both sides. Our military is the best and I can't imagine what they are capable of.

      Well your pilot was a fool then.
      If he wasn't feeling well enough to use the radio properly then there is one procedure and one procedure ONLY to follow. Declare an emergency and land at the nearest airfield.
      If it happened anywhere remotely near as you describe then he would have lost his licence. He would have deserved to do so as well.

      Unless ordered or if they can see the aircraft is a direct threat to the safety of the president, they won't shoot them down. The engagement process is simply part of the exercise to practice for the real scenario of having to engage a rogue aircraft. They'll just escort them away from the air space. Hence the pilots words where he puts emphasis on the ROE in terms of shooting down the aircraft violating a closed air space. It can be just as dangerous shooting down an aircraft over closed air space as it is allowing the aircraft to stay in the air space, engaging the aircraft is the last resort if they are determined a threat.
      I get the joke but I just thought I would give some information if anyone cares cause I'm just as bored as you are watching these videos.

If they aren’t careful and drop a wing with not enough air speed they can tip stall which is when the dangerous things start to happen

    By the way the Headbutt maneuver 3:20 serves another purpose. You are now flying right through his wake - this causes turbulence and rapid change of airspeed due to him pushing a lot of air towards you or out of your reach. You are essentially flying through the exact spot that he has dispersed the air. This is something that every pilot takes into account on take off/landing - they must calculate and maintain a seperation based on how large the aircraft in front is. Otherwise when you come in to land the air is swirling around everywhere and causes big control issues - This can last for a lot longer than you think too.

    As a member of the Civil Air Patrol, it was very disappointing to see our role in this segment ignored by corespondent and the network. CAP regularly assists in air intercept training with the US Air Force. We are proud to be the official auxiliary of the Air Force and part of it’s Total Force.

      The Silly Air Patrol is just that-silly. When I was a cadet in the late 1960s it was excellent. These days it is one mountain of paperwork and excruciating detail (they don’t trust their own pilots) after another. They are terrified of aviation (can’t land on a grass strip! Taildraggers not allowed!). Those brave men who birthed CAP during WWII would be mortified and sadly disappointed at the top-heavy, silly bureaucracy it has become. Sad. And about to be completely irrelevant as technology will pass it by. Huge opportunity lost because the “colonels” have their heads buried firmly in the sand.

      As well you should be. My family has been involved in military air defense since 1918 and I have several relatives that fly in various branches and one in the CAP. Here in Florida I love it when the Coast Guard flies over my home reminding me of what they do to keep us safe. Their aircraft is hard to miss, big, bulky and loud, lol. I never know when one of your CAP aircraft are overhead because they are not very loud and don't really stand out among all the other aircraft. I live a mile south of a municipal air field where CAP flights frequently take off and land. But I know they are there. They frequently assist not just the Coast Guard here but also the sheriff's department as well as air ambulance flights. I've been told that there is at least one in our county's air space at all times and one goes up before the previous one lands.

      As a pilot, I agree with this comment. However, at cruising airspeeds, the rate of closure can be stupid fast. Basically, if that had been a real world situation, he might have been maybe 30% closer, depending on the craft's distance from the POTUS. But, since this was a planned drill, safety was the priority first and foremost. When I heard him say that, I just got annoyed. I mean technically he was correct, but it's like saying NYC is "merely feet" away from London.
