Multiple witnesses say a drone came too close for comfort with Air Force One as it headed toward a touchdown in Washington last night. The specially outfitted Boeing 747-200B was approaching an airport near Washington when several on board saw the object, which most seem to agree was a drone. Air Force One was on the final approach for landing. That’s when several passengers on board noticed a drone off the plane’s right side. The object sighted was yellow and black and shaped like a cross, according to a Bloomberg News report. The incident occurred shortly before the plane touched down at 5:54 p.m. local time Sunday. Along with certain support staff, journalists tend to accompany the President on Air Force One. AFP White House Correspondent Sebastian Smith was on board and tweeted about the incident just minutes after arrival:
