Better Than Air Force One? Inside Trump’s Private Jet

Built to hold 228 passengers, the Boeing 757 is three times the size of a typical private jet – 47 meters long, with a wingspan of 39 meters and the tail standing nearly 14 meters high. This makes it one of the biggest corporate jets in the entire world. The plane comes with two bedrooms and a shower, as well as a ‘screening room’ equipped with a 57 inch TV – like having your own personal home cinema.

Europe’s Great Wilderness: Europe’s Green Heart

Europe was once covered by forest, from the Arctic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea. Wiped out in a mini ice age, they, and the wildlife that inhabit them are making a spectacular recovery. Today, Europe’s forests cover around 1000 million hectares (about 30 times the size of Poland). From Mediterranean cork forests; Central Europe’s great oak and beech woodlands to the evergreen taiga just below the Arctic Circle, these wild woodlands form some of the most secret, complex and beautiful habitats on the planet.

Kremlin: Drone spying ‘fake news’

The Kremlin has dismissed a New York Times report that Russia or its proxies were flying surveillance drones over routes that the United States and its allies use to ferry military supplies through eastern Germany. The newspaper quoted US and other Western officials as saying Moscow was using the drones to collect intelligence that could be used to bolster a sabotage campaign against the West and to assist Russian troops fighting in Ukraine.
