NORAD intercepts plane in Trump's Bedminster no-fly zone - 'No excuses' | 5 July 2025 | A fighter jet scrambled by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) intercepted a civilian aircraft Saturday afternoon after it entered restricted airspace over Bedminster, New Jersey, where President Donald Trump is spending the holiday weekend. The pilot flew into a temporary flight restriction (TFR) zone just before 2:40 p.m. ET, according to a NORAD statement. The aircraft was safely escorted out of the area after a standard "head-butt" maneuver was used to get the pilot's attention. This was the fourth restricted airspace violation of the day and not the last. NORAD says another incursion happened later, making for five unauthorized entries in a single day over presidential airspace.
