First lady’s C-32 forced to land after smoke fills cabin.
First Lady Melania Trump’s C-32 aircraft was forced to return to Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland, shortly after takeoff Wednesday because the cabin filled with smoke, the Air Force said.
The first lady was on her way to Philadelphia to visit a hospital when just minutes after takeoff from Andrews there was “a thin haze of smoke” and reporters traveling with Trump could “smell something burning. The smell quickly became stronger,” according to a pool reporter who was traveling with the first lady.
