New Season of “The Art of Surge” on Fox Nation
The second season of Fox Nation’s “The Art of Surge” has viewers intrigued with a look at Trump Force 1, the signature Boeing 757-200 that ferries the 47th president during the high-profile 2024 campaign. It’s quite a sight—featuring gleaming gold “Trump” lettering and dual engines, alongside the American flag gracing the tail fin, the plane certainly makes a statement. Its exterior design, a mix of white and navy with bold red stripes, is both eye-catching and distinctly patriotic.
In this new season, the crew of the aircraft shares insights about what it’s like to operate such a recognizable plane. They humorously note that the aircraft has its own fame, separate from its passengers.
Captain Hank Foley mentions that they might do something called “flybys,” which is when planes fly at low altitudes over crowds—a maneuver often associated with military jets. The first day on the job was memorable; Trump, I think, was there giving a thumbs up, which was a thrill for Foley. “You’re in the news, Captain,” Trump said, and Foley couldn’t help but feel a rush of pride.
As the plane generally flies at around 41,000 feet, according to Foley, it can reach speeds of 500 miles per hour—sometimes even hitting 600 to 700 with a good tailwind.
This episode also features flight attendant Deborah Spirali, who ensures everything runs smoothly—from serving meals to adjusting the entertainment options. “It has to be perfect,” she emphasizes while showcasing the elegant interiors of the aircraft, which also serve as a meeting space.
The episode takes the viewers on a journey to Greenland, a destination that apparently piqued Trump’s interest as a strategic opportunity. Throughout the season, the series captures the essence of Trump’s efforts to reclaim the White House, covering various events—including a symbolic McDonald’s visit and other noteworthy rallies.
Fans can look forward to the second season as it highlights the fascinating dynamics behind the scenes of Trump’s campaign. It’s this kind of access that makes the series engaging for those wanting an inside look at American political culture.
