'No more landing on wet, soggy grass!': Trump unveils new White House helipad project for Marine One
US President Donald Trump has announced a new White House helipad project on the South Lawn, saying it will provide a dedicated landing area for the presidential helicopter, Marine One. Speaking at the White House, Trump said the new helipad will feature the presidential seal and is being funded by Sikorsky. According to the president, the project is designed to eliminate the need for Marine One to land on the grass, particularly during wet weather, and better accommodate newer, more powerful helicopters.
