Helicopter carrying Jared and Ivanka experiences engine failure
Ns News Online Desk: A helicopter carrying first daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, had to be rerouted after one of its engines failed, law enforcement officials told CNN.
The senior White House aides were flying from Washington, DC, to New York on Thursday afternoon in a two-engine helicopter when one engine failed, sources told the network.
The chopper had to return to Ronald Reagan National Airport, where the couple hopped on a commercial flight instead. It is unclear how far into the less than two-hour trip they were when the engine failed.
The aircraft was a Sikorsky owned by the Trump Organization.
A spokesperson for the couple had no comment on the incident.
