Trump’s plane returns to air base due to problems

U.S. President Donald Trump landed safely on Air Force One at Joint Base Andrews near Washington to change aircraft on Tuesday night after crew on his initial flight identified what the White House called a “minor electrical issue” shortly after takeoff, Reuters reported.

After the Boeing 747 landed, the trip continued on a smaller Boeing 757 that departed just after midnight local time (0500 GMT) on Wednesday, more than two hours after the initial flight took off.

Trump is traveling to join other world leaders at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
