White House approves new Marine One helipad
The White House is modifying a new helipad on the South Lawn to accommodate a larger Marine One helicopter, after President Trump expressed dissatisfaction with its appearance and the lawn's slope. Construction is ongoing to ensure the pad is level and meets the needs of the new helicopter, which costs around $5-6 million and is funded by Sikorsky Aircraft. The upgrade aims to improve safety and protect the lawn from exhaust fumes, as the new helicopter is heavier and more powerful than previous models.
