Formerly Palm Beach International Airport, the site was officially renamed President Donald J. Trump International Airport in July

The Federal Aviation Administration is proposing new flight rules near Trump International Airport in Palm Beach, Florida, after security concerns about Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump’s residence.

The agency’s plan outlines flight restrictions within a one-nautical-mile radius, extending up to 2,000 feet around the property, which is near the airport.

The FAA noted that the U.S. Secret Service requested these measures based on threat intelligence, stating the changes would "greatly increase the ability to mitigate the persistent risks posed by unauthorized aircraft and unmanned aircraft systems.”

    I bet tiny-d donnie got a good scare after seeing all that drone footage and started wondering about someone parking a boat just off the coast and doing something nasty with a drone…not that terrorists flying drones are going to care about an airspace being closed.
