An aircraft carrying Markwayne Mullin, the U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security, had to make an emergency landing in Washington on September 2, 2026, due to a failure of the right engine. The plane, piloted by U.S. Coast Guard members, was diverted to Ronald Reagan National Airport with fourteen people on board. Mullin praised the pilots' work, stating that the landing went smoothly, although it was the pilots' first experience of this kind.
