Fighter Jets Practice Over Mar-a-Lago

U.S. fighter jets buzzed the skies above President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach Wednesday morning as part of an ongoing military training exercise.

The fly-by was conducted by Operation Noble Eagle, the North American Aerospace Defense Command's response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, The Palm Beach Daily News reports.

An Air Force spokesman told the newspaper the training included its air patrols for when Trump is at the compound. Trump will host Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at Mar-a-Lago on April 17.

The restricted airspace above Mar-a-Lago has been violated in the past.

In January, the Sun Sentinel reported that 11 planes violated the space while Trump spent the holidays at the resort. The planes included a private aircraft that had to be intercepted by two F-16 fighter jets.
