NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Donald Trump's plane was diverted to Nashville International Airport Wednesday after reporting engine problems, officials said.

The pilot declared an emergency but didn't ask for assistance, a source told CBS News.

The Trump Boeing B757 landed at about 4 p.m., reports CBS Nashville affiliate WTVF-TV.



The Federal Aviation Administration says it will investigate.

Trump, a Republican presidential contender, was on his way to Little Rock, Arkansas for a rally when the starboard engine experienced a mechanical issue 50 miles outside Nashville, WTVF says.

A source told the station one of the engines was sticking in neutral.

That jet has been used like a mofo since his campaign started. Probably some time for some maintenance.

Yeah I'm sure his pilots made that shit up for the sake of a publicity stunt.  They probably lied and decided to risk their license just so trump could get three seconds of coverage.

Is this so the news cycle is all about Trump and his plane taking attention away from the Old Tyme Communist vs Hillary Cunton scripted "debate"?

Hillary doesn't have the juice that Bill did, or else the Bulls would be playing at the Obama Memorial Arena.

Heard on the radio the other night that he'd been flying to and from Iowa while he was campaigning so he could sleep at home in New York every night.

That's gonna be a lot of miles on a plane.


Also clearly a man of the people.
