US Air Force fighter jets intercepted yet another aircraft in restricted airspace near President Trump’s New Jersey golf club on Sunday — the 11th dangerous incursion of the weekend.
The small private aircraft were all directed away from the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster — with the most recent incident happening Sunday morning, according to the Air Force.
Some of the planes were met by F-16 fighter jets operated by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), and forced out of the airspace.
“NORAD and the FAA aim to keep the skies over America safe, with close attention paid to areas with Temporary Flight Restrictions to ensure flight safety, national security, and the security of the President,” Gen. Gregory Guillot of NORAD said.
