.Sure, they can take off, but the extra weight makes them very fuel inefficient.
Still probably never getting finished. The man-child will move on to something else in his demential daze.
It's also VERY HEAVY.

Trump's history with the airline industry: gold-leafed seat belts and a failed airline
Trump's history with the airline industry: gold-leafed seat belts and a failed airlinewww.usatoday.com
That was the year Trump bought the failing Eastern Airlines for more than $350 million. The carrier was going to ply the Northeastern skies, covering well-worn routes like New York to Boston and Washington DC. He gave the fleet of 17 planes the Trump Treatment (and name, of course), including chrome seat belts and gold-colored faucets in the lavatories (what? we’re not good enough for gold-plated?).
Turned out passengers didn’t need maple veneer wood floors. The airline folded in three years, and defaulted on its loans within one year.
One question -- if this golden plane exists, was it your gold?
