Sikorsky S-76 helicopter | Wikipedia

As of 2025, Donald Trump's holding company, The Trump Organization, owns a select fleet of private aircraft comprising a Boeing 757-200 and three Sikorsky S-76 helicopters. The Boeing 757, known as "Trump Force One," serves a range of personal and professional uses, being a mobile command center, luxury residence, and symbol of the Trump brand.

The Boeing 757-200, registered as N757AF, was acquired by Trump in 2011 from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. Its distinctive black and gold livery, featuring “TRUMP” lettering and an American flag, makes it easily recognizable. Trump has often compared it favorably to "Air Force One," stating in Rolling Stone magazine that "Air Force One is 'a step down' from my 757 'in every way.'"

This aircraft is based at Palm Beach International Airport in Florida and is used for various activities, from campaign events to international travel. It was notably refurbished for about $100 million and features interiors worthy of a luxury hotel—complete with custom leather, wood paneling, gold finishes, and a range of amenities such as a master bedroom and a conference area.

In addition to the 757, The Trump Organization operates three Sikorsky S-76 helicopters for VIP transport, painted in custom liveries with the Trump logo. These helicopters serve as a flexible option for short-distance travel across Trump’s activities in New York, Florida, and even the UK.

Previously, Trump's portfolio included a Cessna Citation X, known for its speed, which he sold in 2024 to MM Fleet Holdings LLC. The company is associated with Texas real estate developer Mehrdad Moayedi.

Trump's involvement in private aviation stretches back decades, with past ownership of a Boeing 727 and endeavors such as Trump Shuttle, a short-lived airline from the 1980s.

The ownership and operation of these aircraft have garnered a mix of praise and criticism. Advocates appreciate the autonomy and branding it offers, whereas critics highlight the environmental impact and high costs. Trump has not publicized any steps toward emission-offsetting or plans to make the fleet more eco-friendly.

Overall, Trump's aircraft remain deeply intertwined with his public image and symbol of his messaging power. As part of a larger, ongoing narrative, these aircraft play an essential role in his business, personal, and political endeavors.
