...and corroding in what is a very hostile climate for airplanes. There was talk of moving it for repainting and overhaul work, but one engine had been removed due to serious mechanical problems, and there were all sorts of obstacles to even getting the plane in the air again.

Here we have Drumpf once again trying to grift his fans to cover his own business expenses. Just a total cheapskate.
