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 diverted to RAF Mildenhall in England after the crew discovered the crack. The Boeing C-32A, a military version of the Boeing 757, transports senior US government and military officials.
The plane had departed Brussels for Washington, D.C. after Hegseth attended NATO defense minister meetings. About 30 minutes into the transatlantic leg, the crew identified a growing fracture across one of the forward cockpit panes.
Following protocol, the pilots declared a general emergency and began a descent to 10,000 feet. Author's summary: Emergency landing in England due to windshield crack.
