Pete Hegseth's C-32A Emergency Landing
Pete Hegseth's C-32A made an emergency landing in England due to a cockpit windshield crack. All passengers are safe, according to officials.
The flight, which departed from Brussels bound for Washington, D.C., was diverted to RAF Mildenhall in England after the crew discovered the crack. The Boeing C-32A, a military version of the Boeing 757, is used to transport senior US government and military officials.
About 30 minutes into the transatlantic leg, the flight crew identified a growing fracture across one of the forward cockpit panes while cruising over the Atlantic near southern Ireland. The pilots followed protocol, squawking 7700 to indicate a general emergency, and began a descent to 10,000 feet.
The aircraft can safely operate in the event of cabin depressurization at this altitude.
