you bring up an interesting point, besides the one on top of your head, but, as usual, you do not have your facts straight. It is true that the USAF has used that airport for some time. But, according to this article from the NY Post, owned by the lying pig Rupert Murdoch, the number of stops has increased exponentially since trump assumed office, and I do mean assumed. from the article-
President Trump’s organization entered into a business partnership in 2014 with a Scottish airport that recently directed a United States Air Force Crew to an overnight stay at one of Trump’s resorts — something the president denied any involvement in, according to a
New York Times report.
Under the 2014 arrangement, the Trump Organization agreed to try to boost private and commercial air traffic to Glasgow Prestwick Airport in exchange for helping to send flight crews to the Trump-owned Turnberry resort, according to documents obtained by the paper.
To help obtain the extra business, Turnberry — which is 20 miles outside the airport — was added to an existing list of hotels that Glasgow Prestwick would normally book for arriving crews, the documents revealed.
“As a list of hotels that we use for our business, being honest, Turnberry was always last on the list, based on price,” Jules Matteoni, a manager at Glasgow Prestwick, wrote in June 2015 to executives at Trump Turnberry.
“Yesterday’s proposal places Turnberry in a favorable position and gives us food for thought in our placement of crews moving forward.”
On Monday, the airport confirmed to the Times the arrangement with Turnberry.
“We provide a full handling service for customers and routinely arrange overnight accommodation for visiting aircrew when requested,” the Prestwick airport said in a statement. “We use over a dozen local hotels, including Trump Turnberry, which accounts for a small percentage of the total hotel bookings we make.”
Since Trump took office, the partnership has raised some eyebrows — especially since a seven-member United States Air Force crew who flew into Glasgow Prestwick in March ended up staying at Turnberry.
Under that existing arrangement, American military planes refuel at the Scottish airport, which helps arrange local overnight stays for the arriving crews.
Air Force trips to the airport, however, have increased each year Trump has been in office, the Times says.
In 2017, 180 of the American military planes landed at Prestwick. So far this year, 259 of them have stopped the airport, according to the Times.
