F-16 escorts plane out of area after airspace incursion near Trump's golf course
BEDMINSTER, NEW JERSEY, JUL 5 – NORAD scrambled an F-16 to intercept and escort the fifth civilian aircraft violating the Temporary Flight Restriction over Bedminster protecting President Trump’s location, officials said.
- On July 5, 2025, a NORAD F-16 intercepted a civilian plane that had violated the temporary flight restriction zone above President Trump’s golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
- This interception followed four earlier unauthorized incursions on the same day amid FAA restrictions effective July 4–6, as similar violations have become more frequent recently.
- The F-16 performed a 'headbutt' maneuver to get the pilot's attention and safely escorted the plane out, illustrating NORAD's layered defense system protecting U.S. airspace.
- General Gregory Guillot highlighted the importance of adhering to TFR regulations to ensure flight safety and protect the President, while the First Air Force reminded pilots to remain vigilant, comply with the law, and avoid entering restricted airspace.
- Officials reported no disruption to Trump's schedule but signal continued enforcement of TFR zones to prevent unauthorized airspace breaches near sensitive locations.
