The FAA notice about the incident, which occurred at 1:19 a.m. ET on Sunday, gives the tail number of Trump’s aircraft, N757AF.

In a statement, the FAA said, “A privately owned Boeing 757 landed safely at West Palm Beach International Airport around 1:20 a.m. local time on Sunday, May 12.”

“While taxiing, its winglet contacted a parked and unoccupied corporate jet,” the FAA said. “The incident occurred in an area of the airport where the FAA does not direct aircraft. The FAA is investigating.”

CNBC has requested comment from a spokesman from Trump’s presidential campaign about the incident.

Trump maintains a residence at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach.

Trump, who is the presumptive *********** nominee, is on trial in New York state court on ********* hush money charges. He has pleaded not guilty in the case, where he is charged with falsifying business records.
