NORAD F-16 intercepts aircraft that violated restricted airspace over Camp David with Trump present – officials | 19 Sep 2026 | A NORAD F-16 fighter jet intercepted an aircraft that violated restricted airspace over the area of Camp David Saturday morning while President Donald Trump is spending the weekend there, according to officials. There is a permanent no-fly zone over Camp David in Maryland, with additional restrictions when the president is there. NORAD dispensed flares during the intercept to get the pilot’s attention, and were able to safely escort them out of the area, the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS) said in a release. “Should NORAD aircraft intercept a general aviation aircraft, the pilot should immediately come up on frequency 121.5 or 243.0 and turn around to reverse course until receiving additional instructions on one of those frequencies,” the release said.
